QtBearer just runs on top of the system networking, so if the platform specifies it doesn't allow start/stop of interfaces, like the generic bearer plugin, it is allowed to return an error of 'not allowed' or somesuch.
It's the current network-manager bearer plugin that does not take into account security limitations. That said, a QtBearer plugin could be written using connectivity-api. It would simply supply one configuration "System configuration" or some name and advertise it is not able to start and stop interfaces/connections. Maybe I will do that today and you guys could use it or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1404188 Title: QNetworkSession::isOpen() always returns false Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using QNetworkSession::isOpen() in confined apps on a phone running vivid always returns false. This might be an apparmor thing, however, I couldn't find any REJECTED entries in log files. The test app in lp:~mzanetti/+junk/nmsessiontest can reproduce the issue. Open this project in ubuntu-sdk's qtcreator and run it on a vivid device. Press the button and watch the debug prints. On a vivid-desktop or a RTM based phone it will print "all is well". On a vivid phone however, it'll print "network session not open..." This used to work fine at least back in utopic images.
