I’ve been trying to make a new release of the ‘regex’ package, but one of the GitHub Actions jobs is failing.
When it runs auditwheel repair on a manylinux ppc64le wheel, it segfaults.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
Or should I just disable the troublesome item until someone comes up with a fix?
I don’t have any helpful answer but I imagine that for anyone who might it would be helpful if you gave a link to the failing job.
The failing job is here: Dropping support for Python 3.8 and removing it from main.yml. · mrabarnett/mrab-regex@be75782 · GitHub
I think you’d need to run auditwheel under gdb or get a core dump to know more. You might need to ssh into a github runner to do it though unless you have a ppc64le machine handy, or maybe run under qemu? I’m also not sure how hard it would be to get a gdb that is compatible with the toolchain on the manylinux image.
