ld fatal error

[KNAnagnostopoulos]

After some update, the call to ld by ifort fails producing a fatal error:

ifort file.f90
ifort: error #10105: ld: core dumped
ifort: warning #10102: unknown signal(1778636976)
ifort: error #10106: Fatal error in ld, terminated by unknown

I am running ifort version 19.1.1.217 on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS  4.15.0-122-generic  #124-Ubuntu 

gcc (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04) 7.5.0

Is there any way to go around that? Whould installing a new version of the compiler solve the problem?

I forgot to post the LD_PATH variable:

See my post on the same subject. I have exactly the same problem on my Linux Mint 19.3 system which is based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. At least now I know that it's related to the libc6 update and not something else on my system.  Unfortunately, there is not an easy way to undo an update like libc6 without wiping out your entire OS installation. If the most recent Intel 2020 update (update 4) doesn't fix the problem then we are probably left with no other option but to reinstall of the OS. Since you appear to be running Ubuntu, can you file a bug report with them related to the libc6 upgrade that got pushed with the with the libc-bin package update

Installing parallel_studio_xe_2020_update4 appears to have fixed this problem on my Linux Mint 19.3 system
