OK, I put /etc/network/interfaces back as it was and disabled systemd-networkd, systemd-timesyncd and system-resolved and
re-instated /etc/resolv.conf
That's got rid of these messages (and the one below re-resolv.conf).

Tried commenting out the RestrictAddressFamilies in systemd-udevd.service file, but to no effect.   This error persists.   Don't
know what else to try.

Is this the hosts line?  Ie put mdns4_minimal at the end of the line?    Did that but no change.

Is that done by creating a .links file in /etc/network?   Ie set speed & duplex explicitly and disable autonegotiation?

Did that, see above.  This error now gone.

No don't use nfs.
