If it is known that some apps do require loopback interface for working (e.g. upstart) then there should be some automatic test tool checking whether the interface exists !!

[Bug 500520] Re: Some essential services are not started
After extensive testing (ALL DAY TODAY!) I found that almost all of the upstart services in /etc/init are NOT invoked. Most notably, the system is never put in a proper runlevel even though sulogin pops up and the system *appears* to be running normally. Some services that I confirmed did not run (by adding echo SERVICE ran /home/rc.txt to certain places in the script .conf): mountall rc-sysinit rc rcS rc-sysinit is responsible for getting you into your runlevel (telinit) and that runs all your services from rc2.d -- Some essential services are not started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500520 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you Heineken. Downgrading to upstart 0.6.3-10 solved the issue for me, too. It looks as if the changes made in 0.6.3-11 (wait until the loopback device is up?) keep upstart from working properly on some systems.
