Gary thanks for the response. In looking deeper into how this is
determined, its really up to NetworkManager whether we think there is a
network. The specific code actually errs on the side of false positive,
as if network manager is confused and says "Unknown", softwarecenter
assumes a connection (which handles the static network setup as well).
# simply query even more
def network_state_is_connected():
""" get bool if we are connected """
# unkown because in doubt, just assume we have network
return get_network_state() in (NetState.NM_STATE_UNKNOWN,
NetState.NM_STATE_CONNECTED)
Given the explanation, I think this is suitable for SRU and the regression
potential remains low.
