On most hosts, 1001_Gaia@home work fails like this:

Error loading Python lib '/tmp/_MEIu6MpQe/libpython3.10.so.1.0': dlopen: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.35' not found (required by /tmp/_MEIu6MpQe/libpython3.10.so.1.0)

The binaries which you provide (the exes and dynlibs) either need to have all required libraries linked in statically, or you need to provide the libraries as additional files of the appversion.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : 1000_Gaia@home, 1018_Gaia@home fail with "INTERNAL ERROR: cannot create temporary directory" on many hosts (Message 405)

Dear application developers,
the mentioned applications appear to attempt to create files outside of the BOINC data directory (probably in /var/tmp and /usr/tmp). On many recent Linux distributions, boinc-client is started by default such that writing outside the BOINC data directory is not permitted. Therefore all tasks immediately fail with the mentioned error on such hosts. You should fix the application to create files only within the working directory. Users may not be able or willing to change the boinc-client service startup to a less secure mode.
