Comment 1 Omair Majid 2025-10-09 16:46:42 UTC
Thank you for reporting this.

I am aware that recent builds of all versions of .NET - 8.0, 9.0 and 10.0 - are currently fully broken in Fedora 43 and later. On a clean install on a fresh system, any SDK command - even `dotnet new hello` - leads to a segfault in the runtime.

Based on the timing of the break and the widespread nature, I suspect something recently changed in the compiler or compiler flags that we use to build .NET itself. I will dig deeper into this over the next few days.
