Description Jeremy Katz 2008-03-25 17:36:02 UTC 
When starting pk-application with no network available, you get a long traceback
that doesn't at all make it clear that the problem is "your network isn't up,
you doofus"
Comment 1 Richard Hughes 2008-03-26 00:20:00 UTC 
Hmm, we should be handling this more gracefully than just giving an error. Could
you post the output from "pk-application --verbose" when this happens please.
Thanks.
