yes there is. the libc version to use when AppImage bundle contents is
compiled must be an older version for binary compatibility with other Linux
systems.

Currently Mageia6 is used. This OS has not been maintained since a while
but the GCC version is enough recent to compile all Qt5, KF5, and DK codes.
This will be the same with Mageia7 which will become unmaintained in the
near future to promote Mageia 8. This last one is too much recent to make a
large compatible AppImage with all current Linux.
