In Oscar.jl v1.6, we have at least GAP.jl v0.16.1. This version provides at least v1.3.10 of the GAP package CTblLib, and this contains the function `IsAtlasCharacterTable`. Before this became available, it had been provided inside Oscar, via the GAP package `OscarInterface`.

In Oscar.jl v1.6, we have at least GAP.jl v0.16.1. This version provides at least v1.3.10 of the GAP package CTblLib, and this contains the function
IsAtlasCharacterTable. Before this became available, it had been provided inside Oscar, via the GAP packageOscarInterface.Something related:
What is the recommended way to find out which versions of GAP packages are officially available in a given version of Oscar?
Note that GAP is freely choosing newer package versions if they are lying around in the user's personal GAP root directories.
Do we perhaps need gap-system/gap/pull/6057 or something better in order to be on the safe side?
(A cheap temporary change would be to add the minimal requested version numbers of GAP packages to the
GAP.Packages.loadloop insrc/Oscar.jl.)
