initial install questions

I'm installing on Redhat8 and/or Ubuntu2004 and/or Ubuntu2204. Compilation of ISSM on RH8 seems to have worked per the documentation; I'm testing with the Matlab build. I find that Ubuntu22 is needed to get a recent enough libm.so.6 - seems like GLIBC2.32 is required. This is way more recent than the documented "Ubuntu18 or more recent". It looks like libm, libc, and libstdc++ all have this same issue - the system supplied versions have to be recent enough for the pre-compiled Matlab requirements. Even RH9 fails since the ISSM-Linux-MATLAB/lib/libgcc wants GLIBC-2.35

Hi, the issue likely has to do with the copies of these libraries that ship with MATLAB getting loaded instead of the system copies. Please see 'MATLAB complains about GLIBCXX libraries' at https://issm.jpl.nasa.gov/documentation/faq/matlab for potential solutions and let us know if they work for you.
