[SOLVED]Primusrun doesn't work for a few games after yesterdays update

After yesterdays big update a few games refuse to open with primusrun (optirun works but runs like shit, some).

The error message i get when trying to open Dota2 for example:

/bin/bash: /path/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libst│                                                                                                          
dc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by /usr/lib/primus/libGL.so.1)  

How to proceed?

Ok, fixed by copying the system's libstdc++.so.6 into the steam folder and renaming to the same one that steam uses.

Can you explain better how you resolve the problem?

I have the same problem and don't get it.

sudo cp /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 .steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-
linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6

(First sorry my english, I am brazilian and not speak very well)

Your solution not works for me, but clarified me and resolve my trouble.

I make the following:

cd .steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
ln -fs /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6

cd .steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
ln -fs /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6

I dont know if the two changes are really needed. But now I can run all games normally.

It is always a great service to the forums if you mark the title of your post as [Solved] at the beginning of the title.
