If you have been using Linux for some time now, chances are you've used Wine at some point. Maybe to run that one very important Windows program that doesn't have a Linux version or maybe to play World of Warcraft or some other game. Fun fact, Valve's Steam Deck uses a Wine-based solution to run games (called Proton).

The justifications were that using LD_LIBRARY_PATH to load a different glibc didn't work and statically linking glibc wasn't possible either. But... running a program against a version of glibc that's different from the one installed on the system seems like a pretty standard requirement, doesn't it?...
