Yes, it should.

Title:
  umount of /var partition fails during shutdown, due to lingering
  dhclient

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The 'Unmounting local filesystems...' stage of shutdown fails, and reports 
that the /var partition is busy.
  This occurs where /var is on its own separate partition.

  I am using 64 bit Kubuntu 12.10 (quantal) but I was also able to reproduce 
this problem on a clean install of
  xubuntu 12.10 i386 in virtualbox.

  I added debugging messages to the script: /etc/init.d/umountfs
  'fuser -m /var' shows that the only process with a file open on /var is 
dhclient, which has a dhcp lease file in /var/lib/dhcp/
  Using 'fuser -k -m /var' in the umountfs script kills the offending process, 
allowing for a clean shutdown,
  but that's not the right fix.

  I'm not sure how to proceed from here.
  dhclient is a child process of NetworkManager - should NetworkManager clean 
it up?
  the /etc/init.d/sendsigs script, which kills other processes during shutdown, 
is specifically blocked from killing dhclient
  by an entry in /run/sendsigs.omit.d/ so it is not clear to me what should be 
happening.

  Apologies if I filed this in the wrong place.
