How I can run Android Studio emulator without libGL errors?

7:17 PM Executing tasks: [:app:assembleDebug]

  1. Here is how I resolved it:

    1. Go to Libstdc++ dir in Android SDK directory

      SDK setting

      cd AndroidSdkDirectory/studio/emulator/lib64/libstdc++

    2. Create a back up of libstdc++.so.6:

      mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.bak

    3. Create symbolic link to library:

      ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6

  3. The Libstdc++6 bundled in the Snap package is outdated or otherwise unsuitable for this Ubuntu release. Please file a bug report with the package maintainer and use a different Android Studio installation in the mean time,
