Additional context

Both on Ubuntu 18 and Ubuntu 20, Wails operates smoothly. However, due to various constraints with my client's computer which prevents an upgrade, it necessitates the use of glibc 2.23; hence, I am compelled to utilize an older version of Ubuntu as the compilation machine.

Yes, initially, I had installed Go version 1.22 and encountered this issue. Suspecting that the problem might be due to the newer version of Go, I downgraded to version 1.20. However, I found that this action did not resolve the issue.

Due to various constraints, the client's computer is stuck with Ubuntu 16.04, unable to be upgraded or altered. Consequently, I've been attempting to package the application using Ubuntu 18.04 and then run it on 16.04, encountering issues along the way related to glibc version discrepancies and errors such as 'undefined symbol: gdk_display_get_monitor_at_window' with libgtk. I'm quite curious about the feasibility of running Wails version 2 on Ubuntu 16.04 and would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to proceed. Thank you very much.
