See link for full stacktrace, which should make it easy to diagnose.

Probably a dumb question, but I noted that the image we're pulling in the Dockerfile is from DockerHub. Could that be a potential issue? Although I'd think we'd get a "rate Limit" type of error instead.

# A base image that is known to be a manifest list.
FROM docker.io/library/alpine
COPY Dockerfile.no-run /root/
# A different base image that is known to be a manifest list, supporting a
# different but partially-overlapping set of platforms.
FROM registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8-micro
COPY --from=0 /root/Dockerfile.no-run /root/

SEGSV can be removed by doing a nil check but i think this is the root cause and being discussed here -> https://github.com/containers/buildah/issues/3710#issuecomment-1049016014

@flouthoc what is going on with this issue?

@rhatdan I lost track of this but picking this again and working on fixing the root here: https://github.com/containers/buildah/issues/3710#issuecomment-1049016014

I haven't seen this in recent memory in any of the nightly jobs. Though @edsantiago maybe has actual data from a bigger dataset?

@edsantiago @flouthoc is this still happening?

I reenabled the disabled code in #4537 a few weeks ago. We'll find out if it's truly fixed or not.
