anyone has been finding the metadata.pl generating perl crashes and malformed /tmp/config.in?

./script/feeds install -a

is generating

it only disappears after i do a distclean ... but eventually reappears

this both happens on Fedora 42 and Ubuntu 24.10

can't reproduce on FC41, ./script/feeds install -a completes just fine.

... you have local auto-debug tools to help with standard packages crasging.

maybe start with helping us out whether it is system z or power8 youre struggling with?

how odd!!!... i was trying it out on virtualbox noticed that host i/o cache was unselected ... selecting it seems to have fixed it ... a 16cpu vm i guess can't cope if it is not assisted by the host i/o

sorry for the bother
