Looks like the fix is in place, I had downloaded the following packages manually from packages.ubuntu.com, trusty-updates:
- libnl-3-200_3.2.21-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb - libnl-genl-3-200_3.2.21-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb - libnl-route-3-200_3.2.21-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb Has to install it using sudo dpkg -i, as Ubuntu software center was not allowing it due to the dependency relation between these packages. Anyhow after installing these packages and doing a sudo service network-manager restart enabled my network manager, previously with the broken packages, it was resulting in network-manager crashing, if I tried to restart the service, but after these packages were installed the network-manager worked normally. Though technically a apt-get upgrade and reboot should work, it won't work; as without the network-manager there is no easy way to connect to the internet, so for most users they'll have to download the packages manually and install like I had to do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1511735 Title: libnl: fail to bind() netlink sockets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libnl3/+bug/1511735/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
