After some package update on my Debian (Sid) machine I started to experience errors like:

Error message from server: ERROR: could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/lib/postgis-1.5.so": /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6)

It mainly happens when I'm trying to perform some queries on Postgres 9.1 database with PostGIS 1.5.

How can I resolve this? Downgrading libc6 and libcstdc++ packages didn't help.

What exactly did you update? – ewwhite Oct 24 '14 at 13:26
You're running unstable. Stop doing that. – Michael Hampton Oct 24 '14 at 13:27
is there a way to display update history? – mrjames Oct 24 '14 at 13:28
Did you reboot? :) – ewwhite Oct 24 '14 at 13:31
No, I didn't. Will it help? It's a remote machine, far away. – mrjames Oct 24 '14 at 13:32
I have this exact problem but only with 32 bit programs. – Wyatt Ward Jan 22 '15 at 01:39
I solved this problem by upgrading libstdc++.so.6. You can either use package manager or find a higher version of libstdc++. – strongwillow Jul 28 '15 at 14:51
