Hello, I am setting up tools for a couruse now. I have followed steps to set up IC618 base and FreePDK45. The OS is Rocky Linux 8.6. However, I have no way to make the layout display work. I can only see cross bars as shown below. I know FreePDK45 is pycell and I also installed pycell studio. The information shows :

My understanding is that the pycell is not compatible with the GLIBCXX used by IC618. Could you please let me know if there is any solution to this or if my understanding is correct? Thank you very much for your help.
