Report it to Oracle, not here.

Why Oracle ? Setup_posix.py crashed, it does not catch error no ?

[methane]

Why don't you search closed issues?
I answered same question many many many times!!!

Since I use Github, many users ask to me very easily.
I must reply them while it's Oracle's fault!
But since Oracle doesn't use Github for issue tracker, no one report it to Oracle!!

Please read closed issues and report it to Oracle's issue tracker.

To avoid the issue, a small warning message in the code instead of this crash would be better.
Thank you for your patience, do not forget to take a little holiday ;)

I'm not God. I don't show good warning for unexpected wrong output from other components.

I filed bug report: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=86971
And I surprised no one filed it already, while I read this issue several times.

So I think no one really want's to fix it. People just want to ask a question easily.
People feel Github easy and maintainer is free tech support.
