[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#884335: network-manager: Network-Manager Fails to Start after update

[Jordan Waughtal]

Package: network-manager
Version: 1.6.2-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * I changed all my sources from jessie to stretch and updated. Upon a reboot, NetworkManager does not start.
     
   * I uninstalled the package, rebooted and reinstalled it.
   * I still get this:
 Dec 13 22:22:58 orangepione systemd[1]: Starting Network Manager...

Dec 13 22:22:58 orangepione systemd[1]: Failed to start Network Manager.

   * I was hoping it was an old config file causing the issue, so I thought a reinstall could fix the solution.
