[Bug 651932] Re: Without internet connection, the installer shouldn't recommend the updates during installation, or third party software

[Stéphane Graber]

Marking as Fix released.

Ubiquity now properly disables the "Download updates while installing"
option when internet isn't available.

As for the third party software, this includes both the binary drivers
and ubuntu-restricted-addons. The drivers are included on the CD so it
still makes sense to give the option, the addons aren't and won't get
installed without internet connectivity (but the installer deals with
that properly => doesn't crash).

** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu Oneiric)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Released

  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Testing Maverick RC candidate images

  On the first screen, the user is presented with a set of conditions to
  make the experience of the installation better.

  It correctly detects the lack of Internet connection but, although it
  recognizes it, the checkboxes to install 3rd party software and
  software updates are still enabled.
