Public bug reported:
I want to get systemtap working with ubuntu desktop 24.04 x64, but it
appears that Canonical does not test systemtap in any meaningful way on
the LTS release, and ships an old incompatible version of systemtap,
because simple stap commands fail, as does stap-prep and related
commands.
I am using ubuntu desktop 24.04.4 on x64, along with gcc 13.
$ lsb_release -rd
No LSB modules are available.

Previously this computer was upgraded-in-place from 22.04 LTS and before that
from 18.04 LTS on bare metal.
I installed systemtap by following the (somewhat out of date):
https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/SystemtapOnUbuntu
and also
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Systemtap
The `stap --version` command reports 5.0, and that kernel versions
between 2.6.32 and 6.6-rc1 are tested, but my kernel appears to be
6.8.0-124
The kernel symbols are installed ( linux-image-
unsigned-6.8.0-124-generic-dbgsym).
When I run the initial test for systemtap, as mentioned in the section
2.1.3 of the RedHat systemtap beginners guide, i.e.
#stap -v -e 'probe vfs.read {printf("read performed\n"); exit()}'
