@Simon: The postinst certainly writes that error message, but it does
not actually fail, right?

Title:
  VMWare network interface name change with wily → xenial upgrade

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I just (2016-02-26) upgraded from wily to xenial in my VMWare VM. The
  network interface name changed but the upgrade process didn't change
  /etc/network/interfaces. As such I was left without networking. This
  may be related to bug #1473542, but obviously isn't the same.
