cc @OlivierNicole is there no way to detect that and autoinstall it like it's done in conf-unwind?

Huh. That’s new to me. libtsan is supposed to come bundled with GCC. Unless it changed in GCC 14?

[kit-ty-kate]

If that matters, I'm using Fedora 40

Given your other reports it looks like you’ve been able to work your way around this to install TSan. Did you downgrade your GCC?

[kit-ty-kate]

no I simply installed the libtsan package using dnf manually. But i think there should be a conf package that does it.

Thanks for the report. I hadn’t heard of a libtsan package having to be installed before, this seems Fedora-specific. I’ll try to look into conf packages when I find some time.
