upower fails with PrivateNetwork=true

Hi,

in the latest upower release 0.99.8, the systemd service file was
locked down considerably[1]. Unfortunately, a result of that is, that
upower no longer detects any plug/unplug events [2].
Through some trial and error I found that it's the addition of
PrivateNetworks=true which broke upower.
Now I'm a bit puzzled why upower would need network to function properly.

Any ideas on what's going on there?

Michael
