I am experiencing segmentation faults on Ubuntu 22.04 and wanted to ask for help debugging.
I got some running sudo apt-get update: Segmentation faultsts... 52%
Running the software updater I get: update-manager crashed with SIGSEV
Another instance was a removing a conda environment.
Sometimes running python scripts in spyder:

I tried:
- Reinstalled spyder
- Created a new conda environment reinstalling all packages I used.
- Ran
conda clean -a - Run update and upgrade with apt-get
- Ran memtest, which passed without errors
- Stresstest the CPU
- Try to fix broken packages in recovery mode, which resulted in a Segmentation fault.
- Update the BIOS
- Upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04
Here is an excerpt from a log (journalctl) that just came up after a segmentation fault when removing a conda environment:
59 ip 000000000056e762 sp 00007ffe27297e60 error 6 inpython3.10[41f000+1fb000] likely on CPU 4 (core 8, socket 0) Dec 02 > 16:13:52 max-workstation kernel: Code: 38 49 c7 44 24 48 00 00 00 00 48 85 ff 0f 859b 00 00 00 48 85 d2 0f 85 de 00 00 00 4d 85 ff 0f 85bf 00 00 00 49 8b 4c 24 10 <48> c7 41 >
Does anyone have suggestions on how to find the root of this issue? I could reinstall Ubuntu as well, but I would like to understand what's going on.
