QtNetwork is intentionally disabled because relibc networking is too narrow. This prevents Qt-based network applications, kf6-kio network transparency, and KDE network-dependent features.
### 8. Build system improvements completed
The build system has received targeted fixes that improve reliability:
| Component | Fix | Status |
|---|---|---|
| OnceLock panic | `get_or_init` pattern now used instead of direct `once_cell` access that could panic | Fixed |
| disk.mk error suppression | Meaningful error messages now surface instead of suppressed failures | Fixed |
| prefix.mk wget retry | Retry logic added: 3 tries with 30-second timeout | Fixed |
### 9. Init/config cleanup completed
Init service configuration has been streamlined:
- 10 unnecessary `ion -c` wrappers removed from `redbear-mini.toml` and `redbear-full.toml` (sessiond, upower, udisks, polkit, authd, echo, and others)
- D-Bus service retains `ion -c` wrapper (justified: requires shell chaining for proper daemonization)
- `redbear-login-protocol` recipe.toml created and symlinked into recipe search path
- `redbear-statusnotifierwatcher` symlinked into `recipes/system/`
