I am building an AppImage for Sage 10.8.  I have successfully built Sage 
10.8 on my manylinux docker image and I can run it on my Ubuntu 24.04 
system.  But I have run into issues with libgap, and possibly other parts 
of sage.

First, I cannot build the documentation because segfaults occur during the 
doc build.  Actually there are several, many of which occur during 
sphinxplot.  But I was able to track down at least one segfault 
in gap/element.cpython-313-x86_64-linux-gnu.so.  Based on disassembly, it 
seems to happen in make_gap_list.

I then tried running some example code from libgap, and I get weird 
errors.  For example:
libgap(vector((1/3, 0.8, 3)))
produces:
GAPError: Error, Variable: <<unknown>> must have an assigned value

On my 10.7 AppImage, which was built on the same docker image, the result 
of that command is, as expected:
[ 0.333333, 0.8, 3. ]

For another example, the command:
libgap.AlternatingGroup(4)
produces
GAPError: Error, no method found! Error, no 1st choice method found for 
`AlternatingGroupCons' on 2 arguments

Again, that works fine on the 10.7 Appimage, producing the expected result:
Alt( [ 1 .. 4 ] )

And, to add one more, the command:
sage: libgap.eval('5/3 + 7*E(3)').sage()
produces:
GAPError: Error, CoeffsCyc: function is not yet defined
while the following command seems to work:
libgap.eval('5/3 + 7*E(3)')
16/3*E(3)-5/3*E(3)^2

Does anyone know anything which might give a hint about what is going on 
here?
