description |
When in a hotel there is a often a T&Cs page that is delivered when connecting to the network. Some combination of network manager and update manager (or something else entirely) doesn't seem to be able to handle this, and update are left in a non-working state after not being able to read package headers file.
ProblemType: Bug

Feature
=======
A separate network-manager-config-connectivity package that contains the 3-line config snippet to enable NetworkManager's connectivity check. This is the same approach taken by Fedora since 2014 (their package is named config-connectivity-fedora).
jbicha would like to have ubuntu-gnome-desktop recommend this package for zesty. With this config, GNOME Shell will popup a browser page when a captive portal is detected. The browser page is powered by webkit2gtk.
https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.14/#captive-portals
By making it a separate package, it is very easy for Ubuntu flavors to opt in to installing it by default if they choose. And it's very easy for users to opt in or out without needing to mess around with system configuration files.
This new feature (and how to opt out) will be mentioned in Ubuntu GNOME's Release Notes.
Enabling the connectivity check by default for all of Ubuntu was discussed almost 5 years ago:

Feature
=======
A separate network-manager-config-connectivity package that contains the 3-line config snippet to enable NetworkManager's connectivity check. This is the same approach taken by Fedora since 2014 (their package is named config-connectivity-fedora).
jbicha would like to have ubuntu-gnome-desktop recommend this package for zesty. With this config, GNOME Shell will popup a browser page when a captive portal is detected. The browser page is powered by webkit2gtk.
https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.14/#captive-portals
By making it a separate package, it is very easy for Ubuntu flavors to opt in to installing it by default if they choose. And it's very easy for users to opt in or out without needing to mess around with system configuration files.
This new feature (and how to opt out) will be mentioned in Ubuntu GNOME's Release Notes.
Enabling the connectivity check by default for all of Ubuntu was discussed almost 5 years ago:

[connectivity]
enabled=false
Then restart NetworkManager or your computer, whichever is easier.
