I am running Matlab B2021b on a Linux mint machine. uname -r output:
5.14.0-1024-oem
I checked my GLIBC version and got this
ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.31-0ubuntu9.7) 2.31

which tells me that I have glib version 2.31 which has a bug . On the MathWorks website the guy who reported the bug stated 3 solutions. The first one is to run open_system(new_system('abcdef123456')); bdclose('abcdef123456') in the console before opening a project but this results in the same crash as when running simulink. The second option is to use glib 2.34 or later which is what I am looking for. Is it possible to update to glib 2.34? Running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade does not seem to fix the issue. I am avoiding the last option because I am fairly certain that I will break my system trying to patch this bug and it is somewhat hard for me to pull off. I am not sure if the updated 2021a Matlab version is affected and using that version is my last resort
