Reproduction steps

Install zed on Ubuntu Linux 20.04 (Focal) using

  1. curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | ZED_VERSION=0.226.5 sh -> works and launches
  2. curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | ZED_VERSION=0.227.1 sh -> this version and later no longer works

Current vs. Expected behavior

zed --foreground
/home/nikhilmarathe/.local/zed.app/libexec/zed-editor: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found (required by /home/nikhilmarathe/.local/zed.app/libexec/zed-editor)
/home/nikhilmarathe/.local/zed.app/libexec/zed-editor: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.30' not found (required by /home/nikhilmarathe/.local/zed.app/libexec/zed-editor)

I have tried 0.227.1 up to 1.2.3 (not all of them), and all exhibit the same error.

Note that #51339 is somewhat related. It seems the issue was fixed for RHEL, but not Ubuntu. I asked Codex to go through potential commits between 0.226.5 and 0.227.1 and it suggested #51433, in case it helps.
