The third try did succeed using the update manager, that went to a partial update like the first time, but this time it worked. The difference between both times was, that in the update from Wednesday to Thursday, the update of ppp did not happen, it was in the list of updates, but not selected to be updated (v). The next update from Thursday to Friday caused the network to fail afterwards.
The problem seems related to some sequence issue in the updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1940726 Title: Network-Manager.services are all masked after last update Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After the update from Thursday 19-8 to Friday 20-8 the network stopped working. I restored the system to the state of a week ago and retried the update using: - the update manager - apt dist-upgrade The network does not work, because all 3 network-manager.services are masked and thus is it impossible to start them even by hand. During the install process I saw an error message about a missing config file related to inetd.
