This bug was fixed in the package netcf - 1:0.2.6-1ubuntu2

Bug description:
  ==========================
  Impact: virt-manager fails to start
  Upstream fix: do not fail when /sys/class/net/$alias/ does not exist
  Development fix: cherrypick of the original patch.
  Regression potential: the patch did need some porting, so if that was not done right we could get a regression during netcf or libvirt
  Test case:
  	cat .> /etc/network/interfaces  << EOF
  iface eth0:1 inet static
    address 192.168.1.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0
  EOF
  	virsh iface-dumpxml eth0:1
   The virsh command should succeed and show something like
  <interface type='ethernet' name='eth0:1'>
  </interface>

  ==========================

  I upgraded my machine to vivid some weeks ago and never tested this VM
  I had working before.

  When I try to use the virt-manager, it shows an error:
  Error polling connection 'qemu:///system': internal error: could not get interface XML description: File operation failed - Failed to read (null)

  Ubuntu 15.04

  virt-manager:
    Installed: 1:1.0.1-5ubuntu1

  Expected: to keep working as before
  Instead: can't list and run installed  VMs
