That looks like a version error to me. Looking up that symbol, it appears it 
was introduced in Pango 1.44. So perhaps check the exact version you have 
installed?

Same thing for any other missing symbols: check the exact version you have 
(your package manager should tell you that).

That of course assumes those libraries are not packaged in the appimage...
