Public bug reported:
After replacing Network Manager with wicd the Ubuntu Software Center
complains that there is no internet connection and refuses to install
software. I get around this by simply apt-get'ting the packages from the
command line, but this is a bit of an inconvenience and appears to
expose a flaw in the way the software detects an internet connection. I
have a stable internet connection over wireless which other applications
are able to use without any difficulty. I did not have this problem in
10.04. I also ran wicd instead of Network Manager then. I love the new
Software Center and would like for it to just work, the way that most
users experience it.
I am currently using version 5.0.1.5. I have updated all of my software
from the standard 10.10 repos today Oct 22, 2011.
