I have the same problem in Ubuntu 22.04. You can reproduce the error with using docker run -it --platform linux/amd64 ubuntu:22.04.

I was looking for a small single‑binary inference server exactly like this project, so I'd like to use it.

However, I found a solution in the Internet, and I haven't tried it out, because of worrying about my pc's stability.

You need to add a newer apt source to your OS, and update the libc6.

Add deb http://th.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy main in the /etc/apt/sources.list file.
