cdromupgrade shoud check for an available network connection

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Ubuntu Alternate 20120227.2 AMD64

On a system without network connection (cable disconnected), cdromupgrade asks "Include latest updates from Internet"
It should check for network connectivity before asking this question.

Triaging based off the fix me comment:

        # FIXME: we may try to find out a bit more about the network
        # connection here and ask more intelligent questions
        if self.aptcdrom and self.options and self.options.withNetwork == None:
            res = self._view.askYesNoQuestion(_("Include latest updates from the Internet?"),

I have a related problem - trying to do an offline upgrade (with or without the network connected) does't work. I run cdromupgrade and choose not to download updates from the Internet but it appears to still pull the entire upgdare from the network (the CD drive is inactive). Disconnecting the network lead before starting causes errors that itcan't access the Ubuntu domains.
