2015-12-16 Thread Marius Vollmer
Package: network-manager Version: 1.0.8-2 Hi, the NetworkManager polkit policy in Debian does not allow changing or adding connections from a remote session, such as a ssh or Cockpit login. The default upstream policy explicitly allows this. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=

I have seen this bug in version 0.6.42.3 and in my case the "terminate" output was due to a bug in DPkgPM::Go. That function fails to parse status outputs from dpkg that span more than one line. Specifically, this dpkg output causes DPkgPM::Go to crash (two lines): status: big : error : Package
