Bug #: 1702
Summary: Network interface (ppp0) state UNKNOWN cause gpodder
to think there's no internet
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gPodder
Version: Git "master" branch
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: low

Patch to treat UNKNOWN as a connected state
When I connect to internet via my E303 modem for some reason the state of the
ppp0 interface is set to UNKNOWN.
> 6: ppp0: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
> state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 3
> link/ppp
Under Linux, gpodder checks the output of "ip link" to determine if there is a
valid net connection where the state has to be "UP", and this cause it to think
that I'm not connected to internet.
I'm not sure is it's a good/right thing to treat the UNKNOWN state of the
interface as connected, but that's the only way I can see how I can get it to
work (as in the patch attached).
