Based on my irc conversation with Dariusz... it seems like Debian and Ubuntu devel release (bionic) only has half of the upstream commit. Only fixing "count.c" and not "rd_stats.c".
Seems like there is a potential of 2 separate segfault scenario depending on sadc usage: https://github.com/sysstat/sysstat/issues/162 I think it would be safe to address both situations right now in the same SRU. This will involve forwarding it to Debian and prepare a debdiff for bionic (which are requirements before considering to SRU'd). Once the above requirements are done, I'll gladly sponsor it.

[Test Case] * [Regression Potential] * The fix is present upstream, so the behaviour will be consistent with the upstream version. * I don't see any potential regression manifestation, as this is a simple bugfix fixing ignoring function return values. [Other Info] Original bug description: This is the same bug as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=872926 which is fixed upstream by https://github.com/sysstat/sysstat/commit/d40c8ecc530303d7e802617f21a9ac85dbcd68bd Would it be possible to get this patch added?
