[brainstorm] What could cause ONE e2e test to fail with packages but not locally

[silvasean]

In IREE-Torch, there is one test that segfaults recently. The segfault is on memory access at address 0 before it falls off into ud2's in printType. Any ideas about build config/etc. that could explain the failure?

This is just a shot in the dark.

Last night, I learnt the hard way that the VMs used by CI may have files from prior CI runs (or so it seems). Could this be a case of a non-hermetic build system like CMake being affected by prior builds?

Thanks Ashay. In this case, I am able to reproduce locally with the installed packages, so files from prior runs are unlikely to be an issue.
