Hello,
same with latest kernel rc, dnf still killed with OOM (but sometimes
better).
./update.sh: line 40: 1591 Killed ${EXE} update ${PARAMS}
(does dnf clean all;dnf update)
Linux database.intern 4.9.0-0.rc8.git2.1.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 7
17:53:29 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Updated bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1314697
Any chance to get it fixed in 4.9.0 release?
Ciao,
Gerhard
