I wonder, when do I have to explicitly set the "network" rule?

VLC media player can connect well without setting the "network" item, other programs need to have "network" set.

Why does VLC work without setting "network" and others don´t?

It seems programs can have network access without needing "network" be set?

Some abstractions (abstractions/nameservice and some others) already include network permissions (network inet stream, network inet dgram and their inet6 counterparts). So I'd guess your VLC profile includes abstractions/nameservice and gets network permissions this way. If my guess is wrong (and/or if you think your vlc profile is good enough for others to use), please post the profile ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- * tigerfoot [sarcastic mode] Didn't we remove *kit from 12.2 ?
