If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
That doesn't look like a bug in rEFInd or refind-install per se; it appears to be a bug in efibootmgr or something it depends on. That said, it's possible that refind-install has computed and is feeding an invalid entry to efibootmgr. Even so, a segfault should not result, but an installation failure might. I'd need more information to determine if that's the case. If you care to investigate, try this:
Replace the refind-install script in the .zip file with this version. (You may need to make it executable by typing chmod a+x refind-install in the directory where it resides after downloading it.)
As a workaround, you could try installing rEFInd from another OS or environment (including another Linux distribution or another version of the one you're using). You could also see if any updates are available to the efibootmgr package, and if so, install the updates.
