Hi community,

For those who are interested in running RMCProfile (the latest version 6.7.8 from our sourceforge page) on linux platform, sometimes the following error could pop up, preventing RMCProfile from starting,

```
rmcprofile: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by rmcprofile)
rmcprofile: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by /home/cades/Packages/RMCProfile_package_V6.7.8/exe/libs/libgfortran.so.4)
rmcprofile: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.23' not found (required by /home/cades/Packages/RMCProfile_package_V6.7.8/exe/libs/libquadmath.so.0)
```

If this happens, a quick solution could be – go to the main RMCProfile package folder (where you can find ‘exe’ and ‘tutorial’ folders) and execute the following command from there,

```
mv exe/libs/libm.so.6.new exe/libs/libm.so.6
```

I hope this may help you in one way or another.

Cheers
Yuanpeng
