Network Manager is down. I'm running Trusty 14.04. I tried this workaround: http://askubuntu.com/questions/727127/last-upgrade-crashes-network- manager-no-internet-connection-no-applet ... and step 1 didn't work. I'll be trying step 2 tonight when I've got more time. I'm filing this as a new bug with a regression-update, as indicated in the above-linked bug report.
