Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Before the upstart transition, network-manager’s prerm would only stop
the daemon if the package was being removed.  Now, the prerm stops the
daemon unconditionally, which means the network is brought down for the
entire duration of any upgrade that includes a new network-manager.

This would be fixed by setting DEB_DH_INSTALLINIT_ARGS = -R in
debian/rules, except that the transition doesn’t quite work: the old
preinst still stops network-manager, and the new postinst tries to
restart it, but restarting a stopped Upstart job apparently fails
(“restart: Unknown instance: ”).

** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
