It's getting to the point that I'm afraid to do updates on my Ubuntu servers anymore. :-( I haven't had time to investigate more thoroughly, but it looks like dhcpd is being run before the network is up. I'm running 14.04 LTS, and applied pending updates yesterday. When the system rebooted I ran into this. The system has a manually configured static IP address on a hardwired ethernet port. There's nothing wrong with the config file, in spite of the error message. After getting past the fact that I suddenly also couldn't directly run the init script anymore (grrrr) and the obfuscation involved in trying to get initctrl to actually work, I was able to restart the service without issue. I now have a server that I can't trust to boot unattended. This isn't acceptable.
