Missing or broken libstdc++.so.6 library

Table of Contents

Description

This library is needed to unpack installers in the .7z format.

Resolution

On CrossOver 17 and greater, the simplest solution to fix this issue is to run:

/path/to/cxoffice/bin/cxfix missinglibstdc missinglibstdc.amd64

Or add --show-all to see how CrossOver would fix it on your platform and others.

Alternatively you may try one of the commands below.

  • For 32-bit Windows applications
    32-bit Arch Linux : pacman -Syu gcc-libs
    64-bit Arch Linux : pacman -Syu lib32-gcc-libs
    Debian : apt-get install libstdc++6:i386
    32-bit Fedora : yum install libstdc++
    64-bit Fedora : yum install libstdc++.i686 libstdc++.x86_64
    32-bit openSUSE >= 11.2 : zypper install libstdc++44
    64-bit openSUSE >= 11.2 : zypper install libstdc++44-32bit
    32-bit openSUSE >= 11.3 : zypper install libstdc++45
    64-bit openSUSE >= 11.3 : zypper install libstdc++45-32bit
    32-bit openSUSE >= 12.1 : zypper install libstdc++47
    64-bit openSUSE >= 12.1 : zypper install libstdc++47-32bit
    32-bit openSUSE >= 12.3 : zypper install libstdc++6
    64-bit openSUSE >= 12.3 : zypper install libstdc++6-32bit
  • For 64-bit Windows applications
    Arch Linux : pacman -Syu gcc-libs
    Debian : apt-get install libstdc++6:amd64
    Fedora : yum install libstdc++.x86_64
    openSUSE >= 11.2 : zypper install libstdc++44
    openSUSE >= 11.3 : zypper install libstdc++45
    openSUSE >= 12.1 : zypper install libstdc++47
    openSUSE >= 12.3 : zypper install libstdc++6

Notes:

  • cxfix --show-all may have more up-to-date fixes.
  • The commands usually also apply to newer versions of the distributions above as well as derived distributions. So for instance a fix for Debian 7 may still be valid for the latest Debian Testing and is typically also applicable to Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Deepin and Pop! OS. Similarly a fix for Fedora likely also works on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, etc.
