Compiler installation fails on Linux

I have created potentially hundreds of Apptainer containers including the Intel C++ and Fortran compilers.  Suddenly, the installation of the compilers fails with a useless error message--but it still works for my colleague with the same definition file on the same host system.  I was previously successfully using Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy) but have now demonstrated the same failure on 22.04 and 24.04 (noble).

I start with the standard Docker container.  I installed a few packages from apt so that the Intel compilers can be installed.  Then:

+ sh ./intel-dpcpp-cpp-compiler-2025.2.1.7_offline.sh -a --silent --eula accept
Extract intel-dpcpp-cpp-compiler-2025.2.1.7_offline to /build/intel-dpcpp-cpp-compiler-2025.2.1.7_offline...

Installation of component has failed.
Component id: intel.oneapi.lin.oneapi-common.vars
Name: oneAPI Common
Version: 2025.2.0+377.
Invalid arguments.

An error has been encountered during the installation process. Detailed installation log files are located under '/build'.

What arguments are invalid?  To what entity are these invalid arguments being passed?  Despite the claim of detailed installation log files, there are none.  Passing the `--log-dir` option to the installer results in a log file that says seemingly nothing additionally useful.

I am at a loss at how to debug this problem.  Any ideas what the problem is?
