Expected results: Expected to start the sage interpreter.


Additional info:

At least one of the problems seems to be the missing libSingular library, which was present until Fedora 35 but cannot be found in the current (36) repositories: https://pkgs.org/download/Singular-devel

Comment 1 Miguel Zilhao 2022-04-07 21:52:23 UTC
Actually, libSingular can be installed in 36 as well, and then sage launches just fine. So maybe it's just a matter of adding Singular-devel to the sagemath dependencies.
