For anyone else who runs into this problem. The working build mentioned in the first comment can be found here: https://storage.googleapis.com/dart-editor-archive-integration/23200/darteditor-linux-64.zip

Do you have any update on this issue ?
A working plan ?
A scheduled version that will fix it ?

We will officially be supporting only 2.15, but may be making versions compiled with 2.12 available at a later time.

Added Fixed label.

In the meantime, I will use a quick'n dirty solution that consists of importing Ubuntu 12.04 LTS libraries into Dart SDK. See https://github.com/sestegra/patch-dartsdk-linux

I ran into the same issue when running on my debian server. Had to force glibc to testing which I think is not a brilliant idea for a production server. Having a 2.12 version would be really helpful. I don't think that glibc 2.15 is a hart requirement.

Here's another workaround that is more safe by compiling dart binary w/glibc statically linked.

Dart maintainers: Could this issue be reopened and compiling binaries statically be permanent solution? Or maybe offer Dart in shared and static downloads?

Hi, Douglas

Dart maintainers: Could this issue be reopened and compiling binaries statically be permanent solution

or simply being conformant to the LSB standards?

Dart maintainers: Could this issue be reopened and compiling binaries statically be permanent solution

We have statically linked cross-compiled ARM binaries for some time and it turned out to be an issue. We've had issues with native extensions and nss libraries.

or simply being conformant to the LSB standards?

Could you clarify this a bit?

The issue requests that dart binaries work on centos 6.4. The binaries we ship do not work on centos 6.4, so I am changing the resolution of the issue.

Added AsDesigned label.

For the record, we can no longer run Dart VM binary on Heroku (heroku uses an older version of glibc)

Also:

SUSE(Novell) version 11 uses 2.11:
https://www.suse.com/LinuxPackages/packageRouter.jsp?product=server&version=11&service_pack=sp3&architecture=i386&package_name=glibc
 
Red Hat and CentOS 6.4 use 2.12 (scroll down to glibc-*):
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.4/os/x86_64/Packages/
 
Debian stable is newer at 2.13, but even that still isn’t new enough:
http://packages.debian.org/stable/libs/libc0.1
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/e/eglibc/libc6_2.13-38_amd64.deb
 
You simply can’t run Dart on the most common Linux distributions.

I was trying to build from source on centos 6.2 but ran into this error (see screenshot)

Only Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) through 13.04 (raring) are currently supported.

To compile on centos 6.2, I had to run:

'yum groupinstall "Development tools"'

Next up, getting Java...

You will also need gcc 4.6 or greater.

Removed Area-Build label.
Added Area-Infrastructure label.

This is a showstopper for use in the company I am currently working for. All workstations run CentOs 6.4

I built dart-sdk on ubuntu and included libc to static, tar'ed up binaries and generated an rpm.
  http://download.sipfoundry.org/pub/release-4.6.0-unstable/4.6.0/CentOS_6/x86_64/

Instructions if you want to build yourself
=============================================
Step 1. Install Ubuntu 12.04LTS w/minimal packages. Use 20GB HDD to make room for code.

Step 2. Walk thru steps to compile dart (I also had to install unzip package which was not in instructions) .

 https://code.google.com/p/dart/wiki/GettingTheSource?tm=4

Example:
  ./tools/build.py --mode=release --arch=x64

Step 3. Once you get it to compile w/o errors, edit make script to compile dart binary w/static libs

Index: tools/gyp/common.gypi
===================================================================

--- tools/gyp/common.gypi (revision 27268)

•    'ldflags': [ '-static -pthread', ],
  

         },
       }],
       [ 'OS=="win"', {

Step 4. Delete output in ./out dir and recompile.

cd ~/dart/sdk/dart
rm -rf ./out

./tools/build.py --mode=release --arch=x64
cd ~/dart/sdk/dart/out/ReleaseX64
tar -cvzf ~/dart-sdk-x86_64.tgz dart-sdk/{lib,include,bin,util,revision,README,version}

./tools/build.py --mode=release --arch=ia32
cd ~/dart/sdk/dart/out/ReleaseX64
tar -cvzf ~/dart-sdk-i386.tgz dart-sdk/{lib,include,bin,util,revision,README,version}

In my case dart binary went from 7MB to 9MB which is entirely acceptable.

Use fpm to create an rpm

fpm -f -s tar -t rpm -n dart-sdk -v $(dart-sdk_VER) --iteration $(dart-sdk_REL)
      --after-install $(SRC)/dart-sdk/after-install.sh
      --license BSD --prefix /opt -a
           x86_64 dart-sdk-$(dart-sdk_VER)-$(dart-sdk_REL).x86_64.rpm

after-install.sh
=======================
#!/bin/sh

dart sdk tarball perms are a little strange, repair here

find /opt/dart-sdk -perm /u+x -exec chmod ga+x {} ;
find /opt/dart-sdk -perm /u+r -exec chmod ga+r {} ;
