From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm not sure what fixed it because I tried multiple things yesterday, but it shutdown normally last night.

Personally I'd be worried there's a transient disk issue. I'd ensure my backups are good and files aren't being silently corrupted. I assume you're on an NVME, they tend to fail instantly, but sometimes you'll get transient file errors beforehand (like not being able to open a system library). Look at something like debsums to start with maybe.

I'm not having the issue anymore, I'm not sure what fixed it though as I tried multiple things yesterday.

Also, I'm not using an NVME, I'm actually just using an old laptop hard drive with one of those hard drive cases that basically converts it into an external hard drive.

Your libpcre seems broken. Reinstall the package that contains this file.

I did that yesterday and it might have fixed it because I didn't have the issue but I did try multiple things yesterday, so I'm not sure.
