For example, answering the question "is there an active network link" was effectively impossible for app authors before. Also, in my opinion on a well-managed network if you want a fixed IP address, the right way to do it is MAC matching on the DHCP server, not client configuration. And NetworkManager works well in such a setup. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
