Hi everybody,
The latest java-1.8.0-openjdk update for rawhide (the first build with
GCC 10) seems to have introduced some serious problems - including
crashes and segmentation faults during package builds for Java
packages.
The broken update landed in rawhide with the
Fedora-Rawhide-20200313.n.0 compose:
java-1.8.0-openjdk-1:1.8.0.242.b06-0.0.ea.fc32 ->
java-1.8.0-openjdk-1:1.8.0.242.b08-0.fc33
I haven't been able to reproduce the crashes reliably, so I assume
it's something that's either randomly triggered, or dependent on the
specific hardware / architecture (but this seems to affect at least
x86_64, i686, and aarch64, so I'm not so sure it's architecture
related).
koschei started complaining about a whole lot of Java packages since
the update landed:

The same java-1.8.0-openjdk update has also landed in f32
updates-testing, but I haven't been able to reproduce any crashes with
that version (so far), so I'm not sure if this is also affecting the
f32 update, or if it's isolated to rawhide.
Here's the - seemingly unaffected - f32 update for the same version:

I've reported this issue here:

Does somebody have experience with debugging the JVM? Please help :D
