Title:
  Network Manager's Upstart configuration is wrong - Network Manager
  doesn't start in case of faulty ifupdown configuration

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Confirmed
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi everyone,

  If you add a faulty entry to ifupdown's configuration
  (/etc/network/interfaces or sourced in files) then Network Manager
  doesn't get started by Upstart.

  
  As an example add this block for a non-existent network interface to 
/etc/network/interfaces:
  auto bogus0
  iface bogus0 inet dhcp

  If you reboot your machine then Network Manager won't be started by
  Upstart.

  
  The issue with Network Manager's Upstart configuration is that it starts on 
the following condition:
  start on (local-filesystems
          and started dbus
          and static-network-up)

  This is wrong as the static-network-up event is never emitted in case the 
ifupdown configuration is (partially) invalid.
  In order to fix this issue please use the following start on condition:
  start on (local-filesystems
          and started dbus
          and started networking)

  
  This is an issue in all currently supported Ubuntu releases.
  Please let me know if you have any further questions.

  Best,

  Michael Schaller
