Dnf Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Support
1

I’m having an issue on several almalinux 9.5 servers. If I want to add/update I get the segfault which stems from a corrupt history. Running ‘sudo sqlite3 /var/lib/dnf/history.sqlite “PRAGMA integrity_check;”’ will fix the problem for one time. Then it’s corrupt again. I try removing & resetting the history and the problem keeps coming back. ‘dnf clean all’ will also fix the issue for one time.

I didn’t have any problems until I updated sqlite several weeks back when that update was available (sqlite-3.46.1-1.el9.x86_64). Selinux makes no difference.

I have rebuild the package database, reinstalled dnf/yum and this problem is persistent.

I have some Almalinux 9 servers that don’t have this problem so I don’t know what’s going on.

Any suggestions?

HI,
Same problem! after adding compiling new sqllite3 version
#dnf update ; segmentation fault !
Versionning is a big problem on linux: python, sqlite used in the at the heart of the system!
any app use his proper version !
delicate cohabitation…

I have deleted dnf cache in /var/cache/dnf/. dnf run now ok !

I tried this but I still get the seg fault after the 2nd time around. It’s the same as clearing the cache ‘dnf clean all’. I’m unclear on what the real issue is.
