Description Oleg Drokin 2016-04-11 14:48:01 UTC
Description of problem:

Fedora22-supplied python3-msgpack dies on attempt to use on ppc64 box, as evidenced by borg (https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/),
recompiling msgpack with pip locally makes the problem go away for both 0.4.6 (same version as in Fedora) and 0.4.7 (latest version).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Name        : python3-msgpack
Arch        : ppc64
Epoch       : 0
Version     : 0.4.6
Release     : 1.fc22

How reproducible:

100% reproducible.


Steps to Reproduce:
install python3-msgpack (dnf install python3-msgpack)
Install borg (pip3.4 install "borgbackup==1.0.1")
borg init somehost:/tmp/backup

Actual results:

this crashes 100% of time with "Illegal instruction (core dumped)"

 abrt backtrace head is like this:

                ,   "file_name": "/lib64/libpython3.4m.so.1.0"
                }


Expected results:

the repo should be initialized.

Additional info:
dnf remove python3-rpcmsg followed by
pip3.4 install msgpack-python # Ths will compile a local version.
makes the problem to go away, so I believe the issue is in how Fedora compiled this.

Comment 1 Oleg Drokin 2016-04-12 12:07:01 UTC
I also just checked and Fedora23 is fine in this regard.

Comment 2 Denis Fateyev 2016-04-20 07:47:18 UTC
Honestly, I doubt if anyone would investigate this issue for F22, considering that it's working for F23+.
Maybe package rebuild can fix the issue, could you rebuild it and check it out?

Comment 3 Oleg Drokin 2016-04-26 03:17:29 UTC
I don't really have enough stuff installed to try for a rebuild and I am going to upgrade to F23 shortly myself anyway, so I guess this is not very important.

But still good to have it reported so that if somebody else stumbles on this issue, they know what's going on.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 18:47:56 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
