From time to time we see Prince 15.3 (running on Ubuntu 22.04) crashing with messages like:

*** Mercury runtime: caught segmentation violation ***
cause: address not mapped to object
PC at signal: 94327973681251 (55ca715d1863)
address involved: 0x3f8581e
This may have been caused by a stack overflow, due to unbounded recursion.
exiting from signal handler

The crash happens randomly (our job queue retries failed jobs more or less immediately, and we’ve not yet seen the same job crash twice).

So it could be the same issue as reported in https://www.princexml.com/forum/topic/4955/css-color-scheme-property-leads-to-mercury-runtime-caught ? Or has this alread been fixed in 15.3?

It could be the same issue, can you try the latest builds?

How stable are those builds in general, and how much do they differ from the latest release? We have to be rather cautious not to introduce incompatibilities in our system.

Well if they (hopefully) don't crash then they are more stable.

The main difference is the initial support for CSS Grid Layout, so if you have documents that depend on grid layout not working and being treated identically to regular block layout then this will be a breaking change.

We will issue a Prince 15.4 release shortly that also includes this fix.
