Segmentation Fault when running yum and other commands
Issue
- We are facing much difficulty when executing yum related commands:
[root@boxen1 ~]# yum list all
Segmentation fault
[root@boxen1 ~]# yum
Segmentation fault
[root@boxen1 ~]# yum clean all
Segmentation fault
[root@boxen1 ~]# yum update
Segmentation fault
- Looking at /var/log/messages, a number of other commands are segfaulting as well, and at the same memory address:
