This is why linux native gaming fucking sucks and has done for a long while. Who knows if glibc will break it. Who knows if the distro you run will change how things are compiled and break something obscure. Who knows if the compiler version change will do the same.
Linux on desktop/gaming needs a single source. Not the absurd amounts of random shitty distros and ways of building them with different compile flags, libc versions, kernel and driver versions held back or whatever.
Been on Linux for 25 years and I've grown to dislike it a lot :( Absolutely over the drama of packaging and no flatpak is not the answer, it's just a further abstraction of the same issues and brings *more* bloat.
