Hello ! If it can save time to somebody, I wrote that simple python script a few months ago : http://pastebin.com/fa3658d9
Initially, that snippet was using some GTK code, to prompt alerts on my laptop when a new dump was available, but... it got boring, particularly because it was, oh noes, prompting GTK alerts on every error -- and yes, not having a connection would prompt network errors.
