That libc6 version 2.38 is required is not documented

Because when I launch

bash source/start.sh
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/johnb/Desktop/lineworks/source/main.py", line 388, in loaded

TRACEBACK SAVED: crash.log

I'm running PopOS 22.04 which has libc6 version 2.35.

Need to build cython_hunspell from source, and probably cdifflib also (also prebuilt against libc 2.38):

source venv/bin/activate
pip uninstall -y cyhunspell cdifflib
pip install cdifflib==1.2.6
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH="$PWD/python/include/python3.10"
pip install https://github.com/MSeal/cython_hunspell/archive/refs/tags/2.0.3.tar.gz

For developers, with the venv active you can skip the start.sh and launch.py wrapper, and run with python source/main.py directly.
