the line from the error

Assertion '(size_t) r < n' failed at src/basic/random-util.c:232,

that's from systemd.


https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/basic/random-util.c

look at line 232

No. I'm in the middle here ... trying to compile unicon and it borks ... 
the unicon people don't know anything about random-util.c ... it not 
part of their software.

If it comes to it, I can look at more technical sleuthing, but I'd need 
some direction.
