"This is expected behaviour since policy is that users' modifications of
conffiles (for example, files in /etc/mysql/) should be preserved."
makes absolutely no sense when the problem is that /etc/mysql has been
deleted. In the case where there is no config to overwrite, the script
should reinstal
Similar fix worked in my setup (Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit server install, with
xubuntu-desktop), with slightly different file name.
Make backup of /etc/NetworkManager.conf
Edit /etc/NetworkManager.conf (as root).
After "managed," change "false" to "true"
sudo service network-manager restart
Thank you!

working again. Note also that security=user seems to cause the Samba
server to be invisible to Windows 7 machines--by changing that one line
