commit 923a68777927eaaee3c5fa289053ac3a87d353f9
Author: Bryn M. Reeves <bmr@redhat.com>
Date:   Tue Oct 15 17:00:09 2013 +0100

    Remove useless os.path.exists check for brctl executable
    
    The networking module previously checked that its hard-coded path
    for the brctl command existed before collecting output. This was
    missed in the conversion to using policy defined PATH search for
    external commands in commit e0d132e.
    
    Similar problems were fixed in commits 8b10cb0, 374da99, 8883155.
