installed firefox 64bit according to instructions.

got the following: ~ $ firefox/firefox XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /auto/my-user/firefox/libxul.so: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by /auto/users2/orenbar/firefox/libxul.so) Couldn't load XPCOM. ~ $ ldd --version ldd (GNU libc) 2.5

Since the requirements page state glibc2.22 as required, I was hoping I can get around this without building and installing a new glibc (which I din't know If I can, as I'm not a super-user on this machine)

That may not be an official build from Mozilla please see the offered versions: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

The 64bit builds were turned off a while back, and I am not sure what instructions you are following. I would recommend asking the person who wrote the instructions as well.

I am sorry I could not be of further assistance.

64 bit builds for Linux are available from Mozilla. http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/32.0.1/linux-x86_64/

The requirements are listed in the release notes: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/32.0.1/system-requirements/

Make sure to install a matching Glib version on your machine. Typically this is a package from your distribution, I wouldn't try to compile it myself. You may need a distribution upgrade though, as there are possibly lots of dependencies to other packages.

guigs2, you may be thinking about the Win64 builds which are still only on the Nightly development channel. They never were really turned off as they were propossing putting them on hiatus in 2012 but due to outcry they continued and downgraded Win64 builds from Tier-2 to Tier-3.

The OP is using 64-bit Linux.

There have been 64-bit Firefox Releases ever since Firefox 4.0 for Mac OSX (combined 32/64-bit) and for 64-bit Linux as you can see on right side of https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
