This is also [perl #133295]. Apparently gdbm has fixed the crash that this test checks for, but doesn't report errors properly either. The issue seems somewhat tricky with improvements suggested on both the gdbm and perl side. https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=133295 https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/bugs/index.php?399 http://git.gnu.org.ua/cgit/gdbm.git/commit/?id=030e685eb9df82f63d73a1bf206da84b7aa52374 I guess that last gdbm fix can't be easily cherry-picked as it changes the interface? Might be worth checking what Petr Pisar ended up doing for Fedora. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
