    Posted Thu April 27, 2023 05:09 PM

    Hello all
    when using e.g. "dnf list" or "dnf update" on the VIOS, I get a core dump for Python.

    python3_32
    __start 6C
    Unable to generate symptom string.

    The VIOS version is:
    3.1.4.10

    the DNF / Python version is:
    # rpm -qa|grep -E "dnf|python" |sort -u

    Hello Patel,
    thank you for the question
    In the meantime, I have found the answer here:

    With this module everything works now.
