I am/was also affected by this bug and can confirm that it is caused by leftover files from a former sendmail installation.
Because of this, I'll add the sendmail package to the bug.

Reinstalling sendmail removed the bug.
Doing an "apt-get purge" on all sendmail-related packages also removed the bug (and the offending files).

@ amichair Thank you for figuring this out! You probably saved me much
time!

Title:
  network-manager service doesn't start at boot time

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “sendmail” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just completed the upgrade from Kubuntu 14.04 to 14.10. Haven't had
  any network trouble before the upgrade. After the upgrade, the
  network-manager service does not start when the computer boots up -
  the Kubuntu splash screen says 'waiting for network configuration',
  then 'waiting another 60 seconds for network configuration' (or
  something like that), then finally boots up without a network
  connection. Also the Network Management tray icon tooltip says that
  the network-manager service is not running. However if I then manually
  open the terminal and run 'sudo service network-manager start', then
  it starts ok and the network connects within a few seconds and
  everything works ok until the next reboot. I'm on a desktop PC with a
  wired LAN connection and no wifi adapter. network-manager version is
  0.9.8.8-0ubuntu28.
