Thanks for the notice, I tried running the test in several architectures as well. After running a few times autopkgtests, I see the intermittent error indeed, at least on amd64, and i386. Other architectures I tested (arm64, riscv64) didn't show this issue so far; I'm virtualizing them, so maybe Qemu interferes. My kernel traps a general protection fault in libblast.so during tblastn execution: $ sudo dmesg [...] [1741071.802876] traps: tblastn[3579372] general protection fault ip:7ff551327dde sp:7ffdb8072790 error:0 in libblast.so[7ff55130f000+63000] Looking up into straces, it seems the condition occurs when the program frees its memory before handing back the hand to the system, so maybe something in the taste of a double free while threads are not well aligned. I'm not sure yet of the exact reproducer with the tblastn command, here is what I record in my `ps` output; some of the files referenced are temporary artifacts obtained from former steps of the script: /usr/bin/tblastn -db_gencode 11 -seg no -db /tmp/autopkgtest.DOVsFP/autopkgtest_tmp/exact_match.fasta -query /tmp/autopkgtest.DOVsFP/autopkgtest_tmp/output/kaptive_temp_3600033_520819/temp_gene_seqs.fasta -num_threads 4 -outfmt 6 qseqid sseqid qstart qend sstart send evalue bitscore length pident qlen qseq sseq I'm also near finishing packaging Biopython 1.78, so that update might add a bit more entropy into these testings.
