FTR, I don't want to blame the NetworkManager 1.2.6 SRU to xenial - that
new upstream version now evades the version test in the postinst, but of
course it's still that version test which is at fault. I don't see how
we can use a simple version test to determine the situation that we want
Chatting with Martin it seems that an upload to xenial-updates has
broken the logic since the test in network-manager's postinst script is
now out out date.

Title:
Network manager stops managing Ethernet links
Looking at the changelog I see that the new conf.d file is a debian
addition. The relevant changelog says:
* network-manager.postinst: Don't create
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/10-globally-managed-devices.conf override on

This also affected my machines. Thanks to the forum reference I was able
to piece together this:
The file belonging to network-manager /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/10
-globally-managed-devices.conf contains:
[keyfile]
unmanaged-devices=*,except:type:wifi,except:type:wwan
Curiously, at least
