Hi, I've already reported this problem upstream in oct 2021.
| https://github.com/landley/toybox/issues/301 What do you think about aplying the suggested patch on the test? It makes the test superficial on tmpfs-like filesystem \o/ | if [ "$(stat --format %b . 2>/dev/null)" != "0" ]; then | echo "$SHOWSKIP: du (tmpfs-like filesystem)" | return 2>/dev/null | exit | fi I think it's the best we can do for trixie. Thanks for your time Paul!
