#ubuntu channel featuring strk, alkisg, hateball, Edisto, EriC^^, geirha,

strk 2017-02-27 20:45:35
hateball: 16.04, yes I'm usually using network-manager and only configuring via GUI but today I had a problem and was left outside of X (does network-manager require X ?) and to debug I've manually configured the interface (ifconfig) and routing (route) but found myself unable to deal with the resolver (as changes to /etc/resolv.conf were ineffective)
hateball 2017-02-27 20:45:49
strk: there is still nmcli
Edisto 2017-02-27 20:45:58
getting error "dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)" when trying to do sudo apt-get -f install. How do I bypass this error? Trying to update my gimp to 2.9.5
strk 2017-02-27 20:46:12
hateball: does it mean the network manager is now mandatory to use network ? I hope not ?
EriC^^ 2017-02-27 20:46:32
Edisto: paste the whole output in a pastebin
hateball 2017-02-27 20:47:07
strk: no, but as long as you have it, it will overwrite configs etc
Edisto 2017-02-27 20:47:16

strk 2017-02-27 20:48:12
hateball: I stopped it as first thing while trying to do things manually
strk 2017-02-27 20:48:16
and quit dnsmasq too
EriC^^ 2017-02-27 20:48:44
Edisto: sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/gimp_2.9.5~89-0x0~ppa~86e101e_amd64.deb
Edisto 2017-02-27 20:49:37
woot thanks much =D
EriC^^ 2017-02-27 20:49:48
:D np
hateball 2017-02-27 20:49:52
strk: I'm not sure why you dont just use nmcli
alkisg 2017-02-27 20:51:39
strk: stopping network manager doesn't undo the changes that it does upon its installation. So just start it again and use nmcli like hateball says.

looks like a badly written trigger in that package. Probably a bash script using errexit in combination with pipefail
