PyCuSFM prebuilt binaries incompatible with Ubuntu 22.04 (GLIBC_2.38 / GLIBCXX_3.4.32 required)

[monajalal]

Description

I am attempting to deploy PyCuSFM (v0.1.8) on an Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS workstation (Jammy) with CUDA 12 and RTX 6000 Ada GPU.

The Python package installs successfully via install_in_host.sh, and cusfm_cli is accessible. However, all packaged native executables under:

pycusfm/x86_cuda12/bin/
pycusfm/x86_cuda13/bin/

fail to execute due to glibc and libstdc++ ABI incompatibility.

Host Environment

Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS (Jammy)

GLIBC 2.35

libstdc++ supports up to GLIBCXX_3.4.30

CUDA 12

RTX 6000 Ada

Observed Error

Example:

feature_extractor_main: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6:
version `GLIBCXX_3.4.32' not found

feature_extractor_main: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6:
version `GLIBC_2.38' not found

This affects:

feature_extractor_main

keyframe_metadata_to_edex_main

All binaries under x86_cuda12 and x86_cuda13

ABI Inspection

The shipped binaries require:

GLIBC_2.38

GLIBCXX_3.4.32

Ubuntu 22.04 provides:

GLIBC 2.35

GLIBCXX up to 3.4.30

I have attached a full ABI manifest (cusfm_abi_manifest.txt) generated via ldd for reference.

Impact

PyCuSFM native tools cannot run on Ubuntu 22.04 due to ABI mismatch.

Since install_in_host.sh does not build tools from source and only installs Python components, there is currently no supported path to run cuSFM on Jammy using the provided binaries.

This blocks integration into our on-host 3D reconstruction pipeline (Nerfstudio → Splatfacto workflow).

Request

I kindly request one of the following if possible:

• Jammy-compatible prebuilt binaries (glibc 2.35 / GLIBCXX_3.4.30 compatible), or

• Official instructions to build the native tools from source against Ubuntu 22.04 toolchain, or

• Confirmation that Ubuntu 24.04+ is a hard requirement for current releases.

Notes

I explicitly do not want to upgrade system glibc on this workstation due to platform stability constraints.
