I’d say it’s not a bug. You can have as many network management tools as you wish as long they don’t conflict with each other over the network interfaces they attempt to manage. So if you wish to use netplan for a certain interface, you’re supposed to remove its configuration from /etc/network/interfaces or NetworkManager’s configuration or elsewhere. -- Cheers, Andrej
