missing NetworkManager - no error message that ubuntu One client fails due to

[pklaus]

When I removed the NetworkManager with a manual configuration of the network using /etc/network/interfaces, Ubuntu One stopped working. It reports that my files are up to date but it does not work and fails silently.

Hi. Can you please run this attached script, and paste the output in this report? Thanks!

[pklaus (pklaus)]

running the script returns:

ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on org.freedesktop.NetworkManager:/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files

This sounds reasonable as I removed network-manager (I use /etc/network/interfaces now):
sudo aptitude remove network-manager
