Problem Statement/Rationale

We updated our mongodb-database-tools package from 100.9.1 to 100.9.2 recently on our Debian 11 systems. Sadly, the tools aren't able to start anymore - see actual results.

Steps to Reproduce

Install mongodb-database-tools=100.9.2 provided by the MongoDB 5.0 Bullseye Repo https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian/dists/bullseye/mongodb-org/5.0/

Expected Results

MongoDB Tools should continue to work after updating to 100.9.2.

Actual Results

It seems to look like glibc 2.32 or 2.34 are a hard dependency now, as none of the tools are able to start:

~$ mongodump
mongodump: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by mongodump)
mongodump: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by mongodump)
~$ mongotop
mongotop: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by mongotop)
mongotop: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by mongotop)
~$ mongofiles
mongofiles: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by mongofiles)
mongofiles: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by mongofiles)

There is no newer glibc version available, the latest libc6 version in Debian 11 is 2.31.

Installing mongodb-database-tools=100.9.1 fixes the problem.

It is possible that older Debian versions are affected by this as well.
