This breaks LXC and quite possibly libvirt as those provide bridges which are then completely unconfigured by Network Manager. Test case: 1) Update (or not) network-manager 2) Restart it 3) Install lxc 4) Check that lxcbr0 exists and has an IP configured Regression potential: The change to Network Manager is related to udev handling of new devices, even though normal operation on a regular desktop machine was tested, it's not impossible that this may regress handling of some devices. The fix was cherry-picked directly from upstream, so did go through code review and has been publicly available for a while. This fixes a significant regression compared to Ubuntu 15.04 and looks less risky than the alternative workaround which was uploaded earlier. === Original report === After initial upgrade from Ubuntu 15.04 to Ubuntu 15.10 LXC worked for a couple days then failed. I found that the lxcbr0 interface no longer existed. I reported this on the lxc-user alias and about the same time several others had this happen to them also. Serge Hallyn requested I open a launchpad bug and post some info but before I could gather that info the system returned to normal (re lxcbr0 was back) the next day after the server was booted up again. note: at least one other person had this happen to them also (lxcbr0 came back by itself). Today, I booted this server again and ... again lxcbr0 was missing where it had been working last night. Below is all of the Info Serge Hallyn asked me to post. $ ifconfig lxcbr0 lxcbr0: error fetching interface information: Device not found $ journalctl -u lxc-net -- Logs begin at Tue 2015-11-03 07:25:22 EST, end at Tue 2015-11-03 10:02:08 EST Nov 03 07:25:48 server3 systemd[1]: Starting LXC network bridge setup...
