Gcc compiles stuff as a shared library instead of an executable [on hold]
I am trying to compile this program in gcc, I type into my terminal gcc main.cpp -o corrupt -std=c++11 it compiles, I go to the file and it is a shared library instead of an executable.

Does it run? I don't fully understand this myself (not having worked too much with C/C++), but on my system, lots of files are shared objects (like Neovim, tar, Firefox) but I can execute them. Maybe this is just how GCC does some things. So it might not be a problem.

I suspect you're experiencing this bug PIE executables (e.g. /usr/bin/ls) are detected as application/x-sharedlib - see also Impossible to launch graphic executables in nautilus
