Thank you for finding the upstream bug. When a remedy is found, please assign to pkg-bugs as we have no registered maintainer. Keywords:

UPSTREAM That upstream bug is not encouraging. It was raised in 2019, has no assignee, no milestone, last post 2020. No sign of resolution. Gloom. About ruTorrent: Name : rutorrent Version : 3.5 Source RPM : rutorrent-3.5-6.mga9.src.rpm URL : http://code.google.com/p/rutorrent/ Summary : Web front-end for the rTorrent BitTorrent client Description : rutorrent is a web frontend for the rTorrent BitTorrent client. Official plugins are included in rutorrent-plugins subpackage. Note that you need to either configure an SCGI module for your web server or install rutorrent-plugins and enable rpc or httprpc plugins for rutorrent to work. See the online documentation for more details. All configuration files, including plugin configuration, are in /etc/rutorrent. (The URL is now https://github.com/Novik/ruTorrent) Looks complicated... I wondered whether the problem is related to rutorrent, since the bug report talks mostly about heavy loads. However, one comment says: "This happens when there's a lot of download/upload going on and if I try to load ruTorrent it hangs up for some time then rtorrent crashes with this error. It never happens where the load is low. I'm suspecting it's a problem with ruTorrent but why would rtorrent crash for such an issue?" Another: "It looks more like an issue rutorrent exposes when doing heavy rpc calls to rtorrent under load." We might have to ERRATA this until & if it gets fixed. CC:

major (In reply to Lewis Smith from comment #3) > (In reply to PC LX from comment #0) > > rtorrent was restarted automatically by systemd and did not crash again so > > it is not a big issue > So it is not critical. I choose critical because the software crashed and I followed the bug tracker description for critical severity ("Critical: The software crashes, hangs, or causes you to lose data.") but for me it is not critical since it happens rarely (once in the past 26 days, as far back as the logs go) and an automatic restart solves the issue. (In reply to Lewis Smith from comment #2) > That upstream bug is not encouraging. No, it is not. If someone else comes across this bug, hopefully this report will save some work.
