Thomas, you assumed that network-sandbox is the only thing stopping an ebuild from accessing local services or the internet. However, even with network-sandbox being enabled such behaviour would still constitue a major bug which would be fixed by the devs. So yes, network-sandbox (and same goes for ipc-sandbox) is mainly a debugging aid for developers which will help them spot such problems more easily. -- Regards, Luis Ressel
