A while ago I opened a merge request with upstream with a workaround that fixes the segfault with CPython 3.8. As it seems that CPython 3.8.1 will be released with the bug not fixed, it may be worth to apply the patch to the Debian package. https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/pull-requests/139 All the patch does is to make the C code Python 3.9 ready, avoiding raising a warning, which ultimately results in the segfault. The patch seems very low risk to me. Cheers, Dan
