strace shows what happens:

(Resource temporarily unavailable)

14:05:16.540565 getrandom("+\262\232k\304\234\375R", 8, 0) = 8
So it's blocking on the getrandom() call. dmesg shows that the RNG pool
only gets initialized 30 seconds into the boot.
This happens even before NM gets to write its first "NetworkManager ..
is starting" log message.
** Summary changed:
- NetworkManager takes very log to start, or times out

Title:
NetworkManager takes very log to start, or times out, blocked on RNG
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Since a few days ago, NetworkManager.service takes awfully long to
start, or even times out on failure and then gets restarted. This
happens in a 16.10 desktop amd64 installation in QEMU, or e. g. in the
systemd "boot-smoke" autopkgtest where every boot takes > 1:30 minutes
due to the NM timeout.
In the journal there is no actual logging from
/usr/sbin/NetworkManager yet, just the start timeout.
