I would lke to run DuckDB with the spatial extension, but I am running into glibc issues:

duckdb.load_extension("spatial")

gives:

duckdb.IOException: IO Error: Extension "/home/xxx/.duckdb/extensions/v0.8.1/linux_amd64/spatial.duckdb_extension" could not be loaded: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.23' not found (required by /home/xxx/.duckdb/extensions/v0.8.1/linux_amd64/spatial.duckdb_extension)

Compiling duckdb from source gives the same error.

ldd --version returns 2.17, and it cannot be updated using yum.

What would be the best way forward? Compile ldd myself and use that?
