Plex Media Player packages for Linux

Trying to get PMP running in Ubuntu 18.10, 2.20 works fine, but when I try anything later I get the following error:

paul@UBUNTU-NOTEBOOK:~/Downloads$ ./Plex_Media_Player_2.23.0.920-5bc1a2e5_x64.AppImage
/tmp/.mount_Plex_MGKSNfA/usr/bin/plexmediaplayer: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLX_mesa.so.0: undefined symbol: xcb_dri3_get_supported_modifiers

I did some searching on google and was able to make it run with the following command in a terminal:

LD_PRELOAD=’/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6’ LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1 ./Plex_Media_Player_2.23.0.920-5bc1a2e5_x64.AppImage

Does anybody smarter than me know how to fix that so it launches normally without the extra step?
