ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/unsup/unix/*quake* invalid binary

[-=GGW=- $ol!d $n4>|e]

Whats the deal with it?

The binary from thier site doesn't register as a valid binary, when i attempt to run it, it claims the binary does not exist, however if you use file on the binayr it is indeed a valid executable?

I also cannot find the linux source on thier site anymore.

This problem persists for squake, glquake, quake.x11 quake.SDL etc... and quakeworld.

here's the error i get while trying to run, followed by the permissions, followed by the output of file, the error is the same for all executables from the site

Problem is that old binaries are no longer compatible with new Glibc versions... new Glibc versions should be 100% compatible with old Glibc but in reality some point some changes made it not so compatible. Solution is to load game with old enough Glibc version.
