--- Comment #2 from Harald Sitter <sitter at kde.org> ---
After some discussion with some other devs I've concluded that this is indeed
not nearly as straight forward. There is a mountain of corner cases where you
may have no internet access but will still be able to install debug symbols.
Ranging from repos on disk/usb/dvd/local-network. These are cases we'd
explicitly prevent by hijacking the installer decision. All this without much
use. There's perhaps an argument for having more appropriate error reporting,
but that I believe needs implementing for each specific distribution.
