Missing libraries

Compatibility issues can arise after the OS (Debian) upgrade on computing nodes.

If you get error of the type “mising library / XX.so object not found”, try to add debianN/compat at the start of the job, where N = current Deb version - 1.

The current version of Debian can be found by lsb_release -a command:

(BOOKWORM)user_123@skirit:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Debian
Description:	Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
Release:	12                              # current version is 12
Codename:	bookworm

List backwards-compatibility packages:

(BOOKWORM)user_123@skirit:~$ module avail debian
debian10/  debian11/  debian7/   debian8/   debian9/
   
(BOOKWORM)user_123@skirit:~$ module avail debian11/
