libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found

When I run the MATLAB on my arch linux computer, I met the following issue. I am using R2021b, it works fine on this arch linux computer before. This problems happens when I change the font of matlab and reboot.

MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering.

This is a known bug. It appears to be that 'libcanberra-gtk-module' does not exist or is corrupted. Installing or reinstalling the same would solve the issue.

Please refer the following document that provides a workaround for this issue.

This didn't solve the problem for me, sadly.

were you able to solve it?

Your system has most probably already "GTK_PATH=/usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/" as default.

Set for your Matlab startup to environment GTK_PATH to the path for "gtk-2.0"

#bash

export GTK_PATH=/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/

#tcsh

setenv GTK_PATH /usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/
