Request for network-observe auto connection for qdl snap

qdl is command line based low level flash utility to flash devices sporting Qualcomm SoC.

With move to base core24 and addition of new features, network-observe interface is required for smooth functionality.

Snap has already more powerful interfaces connected as per older request:

hi @ondra, just to get a better idea of the snap, which part of functionality requires network-observe?

Thanks!

Hi @cav

This is the denial from aa audit: type=1400 audit(1732213488.126:7110): apparmor="DENIED" operation="create" class="net" profile="snap.qdl.qdl" pid=714449 comm="qdl" family="netlink" sock_type="raw" protocol=15 requested="create" denied="create"

The network-observe interface seemed like the least permissive interface to fix this denial. The denial is blocking as the flash process does not proceed and bails out.

Cheers!

too easy! +1 from me for auto-connecting network-observe to qdl

+1 from me as well for auto-connect of network-observe for qdl - this is required for standard functionality of this snap.

Hello @ondra. +2 votes for, 0 votes against, granting auto-connect of interface network-observe to snap qdl This is now live!
