Public bug reported:

The latest xenial upload (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-
manager/1.1.93-0ubuntu1) does not start any more under upstart. I
noticed because systemd has an autopkgtest that things still work under
upstart (adt-run --testname cmdline-upstart-boot systemd), and that now
fails. The package diff clearly shows that the upstart jobs got removed.

This is also trivial to reproduce in a xenial VM: install NM, and either
install upstart-sysv or boot with "init=/sbin/upstart".

Note that this does not happen on upgrade, as this does not remove
obsolete conffiles on upgrade:

$ dpkg -s network-manager
[...]
 /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-ofono.conf f59b8838ed17cfc66de16a977e87a66f obsolete
 /etc/init/network-manager.conf 080b2a860317698f65f960687f5363cc obsolete

The package also ships an init script, but does not actually enable it
(dh_installinit), so it does not get run.

Given how late we are in xenial, I suggest to just put back the two
upstart jobs instead of trying to move to the SysV init script.
