i am using a GNU/Linux x86_64 Ubuntu computer with kernel version 6.5.0-41-generic.
I attempted to download Simutrans 124.3.1 from the link provided in the official "Simutrans 124.3.1" post (https://forum.simutrans.com/index.php/topic,23458.html). For other versions this has worked well; however, upon clicking on the "64-bit Intel Linux" link, SourceForge reported the following error:
Quote from: SourceForgeThe "/simutrans/124-3/simulinux-x64-124-3-1.zip" file could not be found or is not available. Please select another file.
SourceForge offered browsing through a directory tree; under `/simutrans/124-3-1/` I did not find the usual `simulinux-x64-124.3.1.zip`. There instead was a `simulinux-x64-nightly.zip` file. I do not know whether that was planned or not.
(The nightly does not work on my system due to what seems to be a glibc version problem.)
Thank you, I have forgotten to rename these. The linux builds and the mac builds are directly from github. As the compatibility between each Linux revision degrades, it could well be that the necessary glibc is not matching.

But it is very difficult to have static builds without a library again including a dynamic glibc. This is a long long standing issue with Linux. One could use flatpack, but a virtual machine instead proper static linking is totally overkill, IMHO and only fighting symptom (and a waste of energy).

Still a small problem - the link is `https://sourceforge.net/projects/simutrans/files/simutrans/124-3/simulinux-x64-124-3-1.zip/download` whereas it should be `https://sourceforge.net/projects/simutrans/files/simutrans/124-3-1/simulinux-x64-124-3-1.zip/download`.

As for the glibc problem it just seems I have version 2.35 whereas Simutrans now requires 2.38+. Not a problem though: compiling from source does work.

Thanks, fixed that too. The linix is compiled on ubuntu latest on github. That is not always consistent though.
