Public bug reported: This morning, before leaving for work, I saw there was a update available for a package in Ubuntu 14.04 (I do NOT have the -proposed repositories enabled). I installed it and shutdown. When I got to work, no internet (network-manager won't load, there's a general protection error in dmesg).
Looking at the apt log /var/cache/apt/history , it looks like libnl- genl-3-200 was updated (and that was the *only* package that was updated). After loading up synaptic, there are other "upgradable" packages, none of which got installed (or were listed) when I upgraded libnl- genl-3-200: gir1.2-netowrkmanager-1.0 libmm-glib0 libnm-glib-vpn1 libnm-glib4 libnm-util2 modemmanager netowrk-manager However, without the internet, I can't get these packages! Please help! I *did* have an older version of libnl-genl-3-200 in /var/apt/cache/archives (from Jan 29), but installing this and restarting networkmanager (or the machine) does not fix the issue. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581617 Title: upgrade of libnl-genl-3-200 causes networkmanager to not load To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1581617/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
