Description of problem:
during the last update, when updating the pkgs texlive-collection-basic and texlive-dist, the mention:
yes: standard output: Broken pipe
appeared
but the update process successfully completed
I don't know if there is a bug or not, but it seems to me abnormal

This is the same problem as bug 24771: the texlive updates are successful, but sometimes output these 'broken pipe 'errors. I wonder whether this is due to their huge size. The other complainant used journalctl to verify the package installation: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24771#c3
You might want to do that:
 $ journalctl --list-boots
to pin down the session in question; then
 $ journalctl -b <boot number>
to show its journal. But read carefully about the -b option.
Alternatively, use the -S and -U (since & until) options; again, read carefully about them.
Also, you can confirm with
 $ rpm -q <package-name>
that you really do have the updated packages.

This is certainly a harmless affair.
