Comment 5 for bug 1726960

Note that if you manually start the network manager service and then do `apt-get install -f` or `sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager-config-connectivity-ubuntu`, it appears to work. So something in the apt ordering is not starting network manager once it's been installed, so a `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^` call as per the wiki to emulate the tasksel task itself post-install of the system will fail only on that package.

This assumes of course one's starting from a barebones mini.iso installation, and hasn't done any custom configuration.
