  When installing 'mono-devel' from the default repositories of
  ppc64le/ubuntu:18.04 with apt, core dumps are generated with no obvious
- errors in the terminal's output.  These core dumps do not occur in the
- x86-64 version of ubuntu:18.04 (x86-64).  Mono runtime appears to be
+ errors in the terminal's output.  I have not noticed this behavior with
+ other packages deployed via apt (however, I have not ruled out it being
+ a dependency of mono-devel causing them).  These core dumps do not occur
+ in the x86-64 version of ubuntu:18.04.  Mono runtime appears to be
  functioning despite evidence something went wrong during package
  deployment.  Attached is the terminal output and commands to reproduce
  in Docker.
