I cannot reproduce this on my desktop machine. If I disable all interfaces (ifdown -a), and click "Check", update-manager immediately fails and gives an error. If I instead remove the network cable and click "Check", it takes a few minutes (DNS timeout), and then update-manager fails non-silently.
I'm not running NetworkManager on that box, though. -- update-manager does not report no network connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446805 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
