Description Kai-Heng Feng 2016-08-22 07:35:45 UTC 
This bug can be more easily to be reproduced when there's no active wireless connection.

After rfkill status changed, nm-applet refresh its menu by receiving "state-changed" signal, but wireless_enabled_cb() in libnm/nm-manager.c may be called after the signal.

If that's the case, nm-applet will get wrong status from nm_client_networking_get_enabled(), because wireless_enabled is not being update yet.
