NM has been ignoring interfaces listed in /etc/network/interfaces for a
while now, I think we can consider this bug closed and Fixed.

One thing that comes to mind however is that NM might be failing to
understand the bridged devices and still think of eth0 as a valid,
single interface if there is no "auto eth0" entry, or if it just can't
parse the config for the bridge.

Also, you can now create bridges directly in NetworkManager, which is
another way to avoid running into this kind of issue.

Closing as Fix Released; please feel free to reopen / file a new bug if
you run into further issues with bridging and NetworkManager.

Title:
  NetworkManager disturbs network bridges

Status in NetworkManager:
  Fix Released
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When creating an ethernet bridge by manually adding the necessary
  lines to /etc/network/interfaces everything works perfect, as long as
  you set "Network disabled' to enabled in the nm-applet. Otherwise
  network-manager will interfere by adding the same IP-address br0 is
  using to eth0. Because of this you can't access the internet with
  network-manager enabled.

  Network-manager should leave bridges alone.
