Simplest fix for this was the one described in this AskUbuntu answer:
http://askubuntu.com/a/772324/186141 there's no need to downgrade
package or use usb sticks to download update on other computer, just
launch internet manually and update your computer.
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
sudo dhclient
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Title:
upgrade of libnl-genl-3-200 causes networkmanager to not load
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
This morning, before leaving for work, I saw there was a update
available for a package in Ubuntu 14.04 (I do NOT have the -proposed
repositories enabled). I installed it and shutdown. When I got to
work, no internet (network-manager won't load, there's a general
protection error in dmesg).
Looking at the apt log /var/cache/apt/history , it looks like libnl-
genl-3-200 was updated (and that was the *only* package that was
updated).
After loading up synaptic, there are other "upgradable" packages, none
of which got installed (or were listed) when I upgraded libnl-
genl-3-200:
gir1.2-netowrkmanager-1.0
libmm-glib0
libnm-glib-vpn1
libnm-glib4
libnm-util2
modemmanager
netowrk-manager
However, without the internet, I can't get these packages! Please
help!
I *did* have an older version of libnl-genl-3-200 in
/var/apt/cache/archives (from Jan 29), but installing this and
restarting networkmanager (or the machine) does not fix the issue.
