What do brew doctor and brew config say?

GLIBCXX_3.4.29 usually means GCC-11 (e.g. Homebrew/Linuxbrew's gcc formula) was used/linked during build.

The error is specifically complaining about srt formula:

required by /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/lib/libsrt.so.1.4

Linuxbrew's formula for srt should use Ubuntu 16.04 container GCC-5 to build bottle, so it shouldn't reference GCC-11 libs.

---

Maybe check brew info srt to see how it was installed (was it poured from bottle, built from source, etc.)?

Then, maybe try reinstalling srt.

You can also check the linkage via objdump -p.
For example, I just tried poured bottle from Homebrew/core and see:

# objdump -p /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/lib/libsrt.so.1.4 | grep GLIBCXX
    0x0297f870 0x00 20 GLIBCXX_3.4.20

I think brew reinstall srt did the trick...
