That seems like the wrong thing to do.
networking.service is specific to ifupdown (auto). We do have several
other network configuration systems. I hope this was not actually
applied as a fix? The changelog is unfortunately unclear in that regard:

  * Added 2 debian/*.service files (Closes: #878757, #771507).

Thomas, can you please post the complete change that was actually applied.
