Description bordjukov 2014-04-01 08:40:01 UTC 
Trying to use a command that has been ported to use capsicum causes it to exit with a Broken Pipe message.

root@chernobyl:~ # ping -n 8.8.8.8
Broken pipe

casperd[1711]: [ERROR] (casperd) Unable to receive message from client: Invalid argument.

Fix: The patch to nvlist.c proposed by Jilles Tjoelker here fixes the issue for me:
