(In reply to Dr. Werner Fink from comment #11) > In the repository editors there is now an emacs 27.1 without mmap for buffer > allocation I've setup a test machine running TW 20200818 and installed emacs-27.1-337 from the editors repo. Problem persists as before: error in process sentinel: async-handle-result: End of file during parsing error in process sentinel: End of file during parsing when installing packages from MELPA/GNU ELPA and when downloading enclosures in Elfeed. Elfeed downloads fail entirely. It seems like package installations do complete, but report the above error. I can leave this test environment in place if you'd like me to test further package builds or provide specific logs.
