Dev channel update to 91.0.831.1 is live
Unfortunately, on the Linux version, Edge is now bound to glibc v2.18 instead of glibc v2.17.
As a result, it is not possible to install Microsoft Edge v91.0.831.1 anymore on CentOS 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and others (Oracle, etc) that are built on glibc v2.17.
This is what yum returns when trying to update Edge (in French but you will understand):
---> Le paquet microsoft-edge-dev.x86_64 0:91.0.825.0-1 sera mis à jour
---> Le paquet microsoft-edge-dev.x86_64 0:91.0.831.1-1 sera utilisé
--> Traitement de la dépendance : libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.18)(64bit) pour le paquet : microsoft-edge-dev-91.0.831.1-1.x86_64
--> Résolution des dépendances terminée
Erreur : Paquet : microsoft-edge-dev-91.0.831.1-1.x86_64 (microsoft-edge-dev)
Requiert : libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.18)(64bit)
Would you plan to attach to version 2.17 back again or is it necessary to keep binding to version 2.18 for new features?
I got the same error.
I only use edge for testing so it is annoying but not critical. I know that Redhat 7 and it's derivatives are considered old and if dropping glibc 2.17 is MS's decision then so be it. We will just send the Edge testing further downstream where Windows desktops dominate.
