[Bug 1341548] Re: Online detection does not work with confined apps on Nexus 4
Could you describe what parts of NM and Ofono dbus api's this app is
currently trying to access, so that I can draft the necessary
information to this confined dbus api?

Title:
Online detection does not work with confined apps on Nexus 4
Status in dekko:
Incomplete
Status in Network Menu:

Bug description:
Dekko is not detecting if Online correctly. If I look at the server
logs, I don't see anything in the email server logs for dekko to
connect. If I look in ~/.cache/upstart/application-click-
com.ubuntu.developer.dpniel.dekko_dekko_0.2.2.log, I don't see
anything about connecting. If I click the globe in dekko, I see that
it is in offline mode and selecting one of the others seems to make no
difference (I see nothing in the server logs and the upstart logs) and
the setting doesn't stick (ie, it *always* says 'Offline mode').
I thought this might be bug #1226844, but if I adjust
/var/lib/apparmor/profiles/*dekko* to remove 'deny' from in front of
the NetworkManager and ofono rules and run apparmor_parser -r
/var/lib/apparmor/profiles/*dekko*, there are no denials but it still
doesn't detect if I am online or not when on 3G.
If I get on wifi instead of 3G, dekko can detect if I am online if I
apply the apparmor changes I mentioned above (though, there are still
NetworkManager dbus denials).
For dekko to work as a confined application (ie, shipped in the Ubuntu
App Store) it is going to need to operate without these NetworkManager
and ofono DBus APIs, because they are not allowed to app store apps.

In addidtion to TLS on port 143, it would be nice to support imaps on port 993.
