2016-04-12 07:27:12 Martin Pitt network-manager (Ubuntu Xenial): milestone ubuntu-16.04
2016-04-12 07:28:27 Martin Pitt description The latest xenial upload (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/1.1.93-0ubuntu1) does not start any more under upstart. I noticed because systemd has an autopkgtest that things still work under upstart (adt-run --testname cmdline-upstart-boot systemd), and that now fails. The package diff clearly shows that the upstart jobs got removed. This is also trivial to reproduce in a xenial VM: install NM, and either install upstart-sysv or boot with "init=/sbin/upstart". Note that this does not happen on upgrade, as this does not remove obsolete conffiles on upgrade: $ dpkg -s network-manager [...] /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-ofono.conf f59b8838ed17cfc66de16a977e87a66f obsolete /etc/init/network-manager.conf 080b2a860317698f65f960687f5363cc obsolete The package also ships an init script, but does not actually enable it (dh_installinit), so it does not get run.

Given how late we are in xenial, I suggest to just put back the two upstart jobs instead of trying to move to the SysV init script.
