I somewhat doubt it. A quick ldd test shows me that libQtGui has no
dependency to libQtNetwork.

Yes, Unix without at least local sockets must be severely limited,
but network is not really necessary. 

Does not change that I still not understand what security reasons
demand to disable QNetwork. Either the program needs it, then it
cannot be deleted, or it does not need network access, then there
are no networkt functions compiled in and it does not matter what's 
in the Qt-libs.
