Cannot launch xonotic-linux64-dedicated server (v0.8.5) in Ubuntu18.04 - ff8eyes - 08-05-2022

Hi folks, 
I hope to run xonotic-linux64-dedicated server (v0.8.5) in Ubuntu 18.04
I downloaded the latest version of Xonotic release (v0.8.5) from https://github.com/garymoon/xonotic/releases/download/xonotic-v0.8.5/xonotic-0.8.5.zip
and I cannot run it in Ubuntu 18.04.


Following is the output error message when I execute ./xonotic-linux64-dedicated
Code:
~/Xonotic$ ./xonotic-linux64-dedicated

./xonotic-linux64-dedicated: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by ./xonotic-linux64-dedicated)
./xonotic-linux64-dedicated: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by ./xonotic-linux64-dedicated)

Code:
$ ldd --version
ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.27-3ubuntu1.6) 2.27

[Note]
- I can run v0.8.2 dedicated server in Ubuntu 18.04
- I can run v0.8.5 dedicated server in Ubuntu 20.04
- I didn't try to build (compile) Xonotic from the source code

If you don't want to update Ubuntu nor compile from source, you could try the Flatpak or Snap version.

Thank you @oblector
It seems the official xonotic package would not support Ubuntu 18.04. 
Let me test and use other options like you suggested ! Smile

Yes, you need the newer GLIBC for 0.8.5. Had to upgrade myself for this specific reason.
On the other hand, it just works in Winblows, if you dare Smile
