--- Comment #4 from davehill <daveh...@telus.net> --- Either use NetworkManager to manage at least one network interface or disable it. Checked for reports of PackageKit error and found lots. It seems that PackageKit looks to NetworkManager for online status. If NetworkManager is not managing any network interface (nmcli d), PackageKit concludes its off-line. Disabling NetWorkManager is said to fix the problem: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/8477. sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager.service That works on my machine. Mine is a Xen host, so I need finer control of the network interface than is available in NetworkManager, so I don't use it. Disabling it was fine for my needs at least. It sounds like another solution might be to actually manage the network interface with NetworkManager. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
