so one error in the tests, with a binary crashing. Don't know if it is the laptop, or the OS, or something in the environment... did a git bisection, and the issues is not new, it crashed in all versions going back three months.

looking at the log of the script itself:

no ideas what is special about this laptop... noting for later investigation.

does not happen on my normal (22.04) PC.
occasionally happens on github CI/CD. EDIT: not the binary crash... just one test fails, might not be the same thing.
