Error: linking with `cc` failed: exit status: 1 "cc" "-m64" "/tmp/rustczFsphc/symbols.o"

I'm trying to run a program using rust-bert crate but unfortunately I'm getting this error.
The error appears when I try to import from rust-bert crate, if I don't import it compiles well.
You can see in the error log that it fails when creating the binary.
I think there is something wrong with my system as the error appeared right after I updated it about 2-3 weeks ago.

I've tried to change libtorch versions but no luck.
This error appeared right after I updated my system about 2-3 weeks ago.
Also I opened an issue related to rust-bert, some errors I could fix but this is still here

I am facing a similar problem. Did you come up with any solution?

I moved from Arch Linux to fedora.
It works well on fedora without any env variances or pytorch instalation/download as the library downloads all needed files at the compilation process.
Solution: Change the system or try to downgrade glibc or ld. Didn't work for me with downgrading.
