SUMMARY
"Cannot refresh cache whilst offline" -- except I'm not offline, obviously 
since I'm filing this report.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click the icon indicating updates are available in the task bar
2. Click 'check for updates'.
3. Notice it gives an error message and does nothing of any use.

System is the latest Ubuntu 'eoan', though this bug has been around for
a long time.

My system's network is configured via systemd/networkd as is indicated in 
/etc/netplan.
I don't use the network manager for anything.   This bug appears whether the 
disused network-manager is enabled or disabled in systemd, or is running or not 
running.

That's the problem. Your configuration is unsupported (not by Discover
but by PackageKit itself). If you don't want to use NetworkManager, you
need to remove it. If it's installed, you need to use it.

Not my decision, but this is the way the PackageKit people believe it
ought to behave. See https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit/issues/336

Is there any development about this issue?

It's happening on latest Kubuntu 21.10 Beta - I am unable to search and
install updates through Discover with this error and also unable install
packages from regular Ubuntu repositories "no network connection
available" but it is able install snaps... so in essence Discover is
crippled right now in Kubuntu.
