dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of network-manager-gnome:
 network-manager-gnome depends on network-manager (>= 0.7~~svn20080720t224551); 
however:
  Package network-manager is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing network-manager-gnome (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 network-manager
 network-manager-gnome
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

A fake  /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required lets it be
installed. The script should not force the need of update-notifier.

** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
