Sagemath install from source fails with giac in Ubuntu 24.04
I tried to update Ubuntu from 22.04 to 24.04 first in a virtual machine before doing this on my computer. This was good luck because unfortunately there is no sagemath package for the current Ubuntu version 22.04. Therefore I tried to install sagemath from source following the instructions in sagemath documentation. Prerequisites, configure were successful. However make failed after long time throwing an error that giac installation failed. I have giac.log and config.log files but do not know how to add these to this post.
Because sagemath is essential for me this error prevents me upgrading to Ubuntu 24.04. Can somebody halp?

HTH,
Have you tried these instructions: https://sagemanifolds.obspm.fr/instal... ?
Yes, I followed these instructions which are pretty much the same as on the sagemath page https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html (https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/inst...).
