Erdős problem 1188

Estimate the number F(x)F(x) of minimal distinct covering systems whose moduli all lie in [1,x][1, x]. The candidate proof gives log⁡log⁡F(x)/log⁡x→1\log\log F(x)/\log x \to 1, i.e. F(x)=exp⁡(x1+o(1))F(x) = \exp(x^{1+o(1)}).

The proof uses `sorry`: part of the argument is written but not proved. Lean accepts the file; it does not accept the theorem.
