Note on portable builds
We're happy to announce that we've obviated the need for portable builds. They've been necessary due to the previously used blst library, which we've replaced with gnark-crypto #479
From now on, everyone can use the regular builds!

Troubleshooting
GLIBC_2.34 not found
The previous binaries attached to this release didn't work with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and would give you this error:
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.34 not foundResolution:
- We've updated the Linux/AMD binary in this release with a statically linked one that also works in Ubuntu 20.04 (
mev-boost_1.5.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz, sha256:6356098bdf466cb7907e09a31e9d369a899685f4aa1830f950c2e5ac32b01bec). Re-download from below and all should work! - For ARM, you can find statically linked binaries here
- Remember that you can always install mev-boost with
go install github.com/flashbots/mev-boost@latest - And you can run mev-boost in Docker too
- (see also #473 and #469)
Exec format error
You're probably using the wrong binary for your operating system architecture.
