MATLAB ships with libstdc++.so.6, that is missing fish shell compatible versions of LIBCGXX and GXXABI

I already asked this on the fish shell GitHub page (question link), but I'm asking this here since that is what they suggested. I thought they might, considering this is not really their problem. I any case here goes.

System information

fish version: 3.6.1

OS: Ubuntu LTS 22.04

Terminal: Matlab R2023a REPL

The problem

Matlab (R2023a) allows running shell commands from its REPL by typing

!shell_command [options] args

or

[exit, msg] = system ( "shell_command [options] args" ) ;

However, when I do this with the setup listed above, I get the following 3 warnings:

/usr/bin/fish: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2023a/sys/os/glnx64/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.13' not found (required by /usr/bin/fish)
/usr/bin/fish: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2023a/sys/os/glnx64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found (required by /usr/bin/fish)
/usr/bin/fish: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2023a/sys/os/glnx64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.30' not found (required by /usr/bin/fish)

As the warnings say, the version of the C++ standard library shipped with Matlab seems to be missing the versions that fish requires, which can be confirmed by running the following command on the symbolic link libstdc++.so.6 in the Matlab installation folder:

strings /usr/local/MATLAB/R2023a/sys/os/glnxa64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep LIBCXX
strings /usr/local/MATLAB/R2023a/sys/os/glnxa64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep CXXABI

Their respective outputs are

GLIBCXX_3.4
GLIBCXX_3.4.1
GLIBCXX_3.4.2
GLIBCXX_3.4.3
GLIBCXX_3.4.4
GLIBCXX_3.4.5
GLIBCXX_3.4.6
GLIBCXX_3.4.7
GLIBCXX_3.4.8
GLIBCXX_3.4.9
GLIBCXX_3.4.10
GLIBCXX_3.4.11
GLIBCXX_3.4.12
GLIBCXX_3.4.13
GLIBCXX_3.4.14
GLIBCXX_3.4.15
GLIBCXX_3.4.16
GLIBCXX_3.4.17
GLIBCXX_3.4.18
GLIBCXX_3.4.19
GLIBCXX_3.4.20
GLIBCXX_3.4.21
GLIBCXX_3.4.22
GLIBCXX_3.4.23
GLIBCXX_3.4.24
GLIBCXX_3.4.25
GLIBCXX_3.4.26
GLIBCXX_3.4.27
GLIBCXX_3.4.28

and

CXXABI_1.3
CXXABI_1.3.1
CXXABI_1.3.2
CXXABI_1.3.3
CXXABI_1.3.4
CXXABI_1.3.5
CXXABI_1.3.6
CXXABI_1.3.7
CXXABI_1.3.8
CXXABI_1.3.9
CXXABI_1.3.10
CXXABI_1.3.11
CXXABI_1.3.12

Now, this does not seem to have absolutely broken anything substantial, but it seems to be worth mentioning.

The obvious fix is for MathWorks to update the libraries they provide, but I wonder what the right action would be if one wanted to fix this temporarily? Change the symbolic link in the Matlab installation folder to point to a system-wide version of libstdc++.so.6, in case it also provides newer versions (which it does), and see if Matlab can still be started successfully?

[dim-ask]

Does installing matlab-support (sudo apt-get install matlab-support in ubuntu) solve the issue? I think it installs some updated c++ libraries, maybe also the one you have issues with.
