SIGSEGV when creating tables from Dataframes (only on Laptop) #497

What happens?

When i try to run the following example i run into a SIGSEGV.

I get this error:
Process finished with exit code 139 (interrupted by signal 11:SIGSEGV)

It only happens on my Laptop - on my Desktop i can run the exact same thing and it just works.
My Desktop runs the exact same OS, Version, Architecture and Virtual (uv) Environment.
And it happens across Data Sets. I did the same thing with completely unrelated excel files.

Any ideas why this happens?

My RAM doesn't spike, and it idles around 56% while running it so i don't think thats the problem here.

To Reproduce

import duckdb
import polars as pl

df = pl.DataFrame("test")
with duckdb.connect() as con:
    con.sql(f"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test")
    con.sql(f"CREATE TABLE test AS SELECT * FROM df")

Additional Information

This code works (taken from your docs) - so it seems to be the Dataframe to Table conversion:

#df = pl.DataFrame("test")
with duckdb.connect() as con:
    #con.sql(f"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test")
    con.sql(f"CREATE TABLE test AS SELECT 42 a")
