I am running fedora rawhide by the way. If I need to i can enable debug builds of node.js to further debug the segmentation fault. However I'm not sure how to use lldb with yarn.

You should be able to get a stack trace from the core file, it's the -c switch to lldb. You can turn on core dumps with ulimit -c unlimited and if you don't see it in the working directory, check sysctl kern.corefile.

I may ask you to try again with a debug build but usually the stack trace from a release build is good enough.

Hey, it's been over a year since any activity on this issue. Given that this was an issue with a bleeding edge past version, I assume it's been resolved. If that's not the case, and this is an issue in the latest version, please open an issue against yarn, or in nodejs/help.
