Network in the build system is only available for do_fetch by default.
You can enable it for a specific task by setting do_mytask[network] =
'1'

from the bitbake manual [1]:
```
[network]: When set to “1”, allows a task to access the network. By
default, only the do_fetch task is granted network access. Recipes
shouldn’t access the network outside of do_fetch as it usually
undermines fetcher source mirroring, image and licence manifests,
software auditing and supply chain security.
```
