Regression potential: Low. networkd is not widely being used outside of netplan/snappy in xenial. Running it before dbus.service is running has two consequences: - It cannot immediately expose its D-Bus status interface. But it will retry every 5 s until that succeeds, so the D-Bus status interface will continue to work. (see test case) - If a DHCP response with a hostname or timezone is received before dbus.service is running, it cannot talk to systemd-hostnamed/systemd-timedated to set these properties (if enabled). However, this is broken in xenial anyway as it fails on polkit permissions (this and retrying this configuration after D-Bus is up has been fixed in upstream master now). As for removing the "*.busname" units in xenial: kdbus has never been part of any distribiution, there had just been some experimental DKMS package in some PPA for it. It's dead as an upstream project, so by dropping the *.busname unit(s) from xenial there should be no practical effect as these should always not start with "condition failed". Yakkety's systemd already has them removed. Test case: - Install nplan, set up a netplan configuration and remove /etc/network/interfaces. - Upgrade to the proposed packages. - Ensure that the network is still functional and "busctl" shows org.freedesktop.network1, i. e. networkd successfully connected to the bus. - Check the journal that systemd-networkd.service starts before dbus.service, which should usually be the case with this fix. Check "journalctl -b" for "Started Network Service." vs. "Started D-Bus System Message Bus." If it repeatedly starts the other way around, you can force it with "sudo systemctl edit systemd-networkd.service" and [Unit] Before=sysinit.target (This is effectively what cloud-init.service will do soon.)
