Have a look at https://sigquit.wordpress.com/2009/03/13/the-core-pattern/ Doing the procedures there will create a core file in the specified directory and bypass the "systemd" method implemented in fedora. As for fedora. The pipe causes the core file to be used as input to systemd-coredump. A "man systemd-coredump" would be a good place to start. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
