Neovim crash on autocomplete suggestion initiation

Make sure you have done the following

• I have updated to the latest version of blink.cmp
• I have read the README

Bug Description

I was running into an issue where whenever blink autocomplete would start, the entire neovim program would crash. This persisted through uninstalling and reinstalling neovim, and stripping down neovim plugins to only the stock plugins (now containing blink) from the LazyVim distribution that I use. That distribution is set to lazy load blink on insert enter, and when I would start typing characters I was able to type 1-3 characters before the program would crash.

I was able to recover by finding and deleting both the blink mongodb files and all the files in the lazy install path, then re-installing everything.

Unfortunately I'm not sure how to reproduce this state, and the crashes produced no error logs, but hopefully this can at minimum be a data point for a future resolution. Thanks for your work on this!

Relevant configuration

No response

neovim version

NVIM v0.10.3 Build type: Release LuaJIT 2.1.1734355927

blink.cmp version: branch, tag, or commit

v0.8.2

I have the same issue and reproduced with versions 0.8.1 and 0.8.0.
This could mean that the state files are compromised.

And indeed, the issue is fixed after deleting the local share blink folder.

Same here, but deleting .local/share/nvim/blink did nothing for me.

UPD: deleting .local/share/nvim/lazy/blink.cmp did the trick.

Duplicate of #68

If someone could share a zip of their .local/share/nvim/lazy/blink.cmp while it's broken, that would be super helpful

In most cases, running ldd ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/blink.cmp/target/release/libblink_cmp_fuzzy.so would show any errors, which lead to the crash on autocomplete initiation. In my case, the gblic on my machine was not compatible with the binary downloaded. Compiling it manually worked out (see #68 (comment)).
