I am currently experiencing some errors when trying to convert html to pdf using Python, Django and wkhtmltopdf on Ubuntu Server 20.4. See the errors

The binary "package" you have installed was compiled or built on a system that is in the future, relative to ubuntu 20.

$ docker run  --rm  ubuntu:20.04x dpkg -l | grep libc 
ii  libc-bin                2.31-0ubuntu9.2              amd64        GNU C Library: Binaries
ii  libc6:amd64             2.31-0ubuntu9.2              amd64        GNU C Library: Shared libraries
ii  libcap-ng0:amd64        0.7.9-2.1build1              amd64        An alternate POSIX capabilities library
ii  libcom-err2:amd64       1.45.5-2ubuntu1              amd64        common error description library
ii  libcrypt1:amd64         1:4.4.10-10ubuntu4           amd64        libcrypt shared library

In the output above, you see that the included version of libc is 2.31. The error messages that you pasted indicate that the programs need a later libc runtime.

To solve the issue you can do either of:

  • compile wkhtmltopdf on your system (not recommended)
  • find a version (package) of wkhtmltopdf that is intended for ubuntu 20
  • run the version you have of wkhtmltopdf on a later system such as ubuntu 22
