            <title>[SERVER-43036] Why are there different tgz binaries for multiple linux distros?</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-43036</link>
                <project id="10000" key="SERVER">Core Server</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi there,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am one of the maintainers of&#160;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/flapdoodle-oss/de.flapdoodle.embed.mongo&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://github.com/flapdoodle-oss/de.flapdoodle.embed.mongo&lt;/a&gt;&#160;which downloads the mongod binaries extract it and fires mongod up to test some code against it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It does download the legacy linux tgz file for that - &lt;a href=&quot;https://fastdl.mongodb.org/linux/mongodb-linux-x86_64-4.2.0.tgz&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://fastdl.mongodb.org/linux/mongodb-linux-x86_64-4.2.0.tgz&lt;/a&gt;&#160;for example.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However since 4.2.0 there is no legacy linux tgz anymore... Well it was legacy &lt;img class=&quot;emoticon&quot; src=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/images/icons/emoticons/wink.png&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; width=&quot;16&quot; align=&quot;absmiddle&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;/&gt;&#160;But I was wondering what to do now&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Why are there different tgz binaries for multiple linux distros? - shouldn&apos;t the code be identical? What would be a useful replacement, since I can&apos;t install a real package or anything that requires root privileges.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="2391104" author="daniel.hatcher" created="Tue, 27 Aug 2019 20:39:13 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;Hello &lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=pwirth&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;pwirth&quot;&gt;pwirth&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our blog post on &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/a-proposal-to-endoflife-our-generic-linux-tar-packages&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;ending the generic linux package&lt;/a&gt; implies why there are differences between the different OS builds:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The generic nature of these packages make it so that we cannot dynamically link in other system packages within our build system, most notably OpenSSL and cURL (which is used for several MongoDB features).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A primary difference between OS-specific packages is how we link the system packages to MongoDB. Are you unable to use any OS-specific package in your use-case?&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
