You need glibc 2.28, at least for the last version of Waterfox..
In beowulf:
"
# apt-cache policy libc6
libc6:
Installed: 2.28-10
Candidate: 2.28-10
Version table:
*** 2.28-10 500
500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf/main arm64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
"
If you are in beowulf, then everything should work nicely :)
IF you are *NOT* in beowulf( ascii ):
1. You can upgrade to Beowulf,
2. The last resource would be to compile from Sources the glibc in ascii..
The unique critique, that I may find, for 'Waterfox',
Is that they don't have a i686 release :(
