[Solved] System gets stuck after package install

My relatively new arch install gets stuck in post-install scripts when installing a package.

In journal I can find

systemd-udevd[331]: enp4s0: Worker [4351] processing SEQNUM=4293 is taking a long time

and then later

kernel: INFO: task kworker/u8:5:496 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

What could be the issue here?

Full journal for that boot (I had to manually shut down using power button)

Semi-wild guess: disable powertop autotuning?

Ftr. the package is installed from  a local source, the freeze perhaps triggered by udevadm trigger.
Might also be https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/77789, try to add

sudo touch /etc/systemd/do-not-udevadm-trigger-on-update

Thank you very much - problem is fixed after disabled powertop and rebooting

Re: [Solved] System gets stuck after package install

You can probably fine-tune this and just exempt the chip/bus from optimization/RPM
