Bug Description
Even if I install without any network, the installer asks for a proxy. This didn't happen in Breezy.
(Please close the bug if it is intentional.)

* Don't ask for a proxy if networking is disabled by telling netcfg "Do
not configure the network at this time" (closes: Malone #29839). This is
a very ugly way to figure this out, but unfortunately nothing else seems
to be reliable enough. Ideally, netcfg would write out a piece of
explicit state somewhere to let us know whether a network is available.
