  - manual-means-online: If there are interfaces that are not managed by
    NetworkManager because they have custom configuration in
    /etc/network/interfaces, we assume to be online. This is obviously not
    always correct. But reporting offline state for unmanaged devices is
    causing major hassles as more and more apps rely on NM and go into
    offline mode otherwise, even if there is a connection (established via
    ifupdown). (Closes: #491826, #502371, #509006, #509829, #511712)
