Strife does not start (unable to load driver: r600_dri.so) [SOLVED]

I'm posting this just in case it is useful for someone. I downloaded Strife for Linux and I received the following error when trying to run it.

libGL error: unable to load driver: r600_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Strife - Fatal Error: Unable to determine GLSL version

I was able to solve the problem like I solved a similar problem with Steam. In particular, after decompressing the game tar I did.

> cd Strife/bin
> mv libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.bak
> mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.bak

And that's all! Then I could normally start the game with

> ./strife
