Since the update to 4.6.2, Solid::Networking::status() is returning a "0", or the Unknown state. This is erroneous since the network is connected just fine (via Solid's NetworkManager backend).

I can reproduce this, and so have several other users of the Muon Package Manager, which due to a bug doesn't provide lenience for encountering the "Unknown" state: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3116266.0

I've committed a fix to Muon to properly ignore the Unknown state, but this bug does have the effect of making the status() function a bit useless.

Reproducible: Always

By the way, the patch must be applied against kdelibs-4.6.2.
