Public bug reported:

If a process binds 127.0.1.1:53 and the network-manager ist started, it
tries to use this port (dnsmasq). It waits until the port is available.
That means no interaction with the network-manager is possible. So
unity-control-center stucks if "Network" is clicked or the nm-applet
does not respond if the user tries to change connection settings.

I think there should be a message that explains the problem: "network-
manager tries to set up dnsmasq on 127.0.1.1:53, but this port is
already in use. Retrying ..." and the associated GUI components should
stay responsive, but only the blocked options should be shown as blocked
by the problem.

Title:
  network-manager stucks if 127.0.1.1:53 is in use

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If a process binds 127.0.1.1:53 and the network-manager ist started,
  it tries to use this port (dnsmasq). It waits until the port is
  available. That means no interaction with the network-manager is
  possible. So unity-control-center stucks if "Network" is clicked or
  the nm-applet does not respond if the user tries to change connection
  settings.

  I think there should be a message that explains the problem: "network-
