Re: Axiom and Ubuntu18.04

Tim, many thanks for your attention.

Sadly, I have issues also with these binaries using functions which 
worked (and still work) on older versions of axiom.
As an example, consider this simple function which converts an integer 
in choosen given basis:

toBase: (NNI,PI)-> List NNI
toBase(n,b) ==
   q := n
   l := [] :: List NNI
   while q>0 repeat
    r := divide(q,b).remainder
    l := append([r],l)
    q := divide(q,b).quotient
   l


If I save it in a file (say, r.input) and run it in axiom, I get the 
following

Yet, it works  smoothly in 16.04 axiom binaries.
