 Running directly on a host requires:
 
 - A platform of either:
-   - `x86_64 Linux` with `glibc>=2.35` (Ubuntu Jammy and other equivalent-generation Linux distributions)
+   - `x86_64 Linux` with `glibc>=2.31` (Ubuntu Focal and other equivalent-generation Linux distributions)
    - `arm64 or x86_64 MacOS` with `MacOS>=13.0` and `Xcode>=14.3`
 - [Rye](https://rye-up.com/) - A tool to manage `python`, `pip`, and `venv`.
    - If you are already familiar with Python [virtual environments](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html), feel free to use your tool of choice with [`pyproject.toml`](./pyproject.toml). Python >=3.10 is required.
