I'm packaging this to allow Python to build its Windows executables, and also to test Colin Watson's idea of using apt-get during builds in lieu of full-blown source build-dependencies.
You can't do that. Packages must mot access outside world at the build time.

This is not enforced yet, though, and might actually be different if we are talking about mirror accesses. For instance d-i also builds that way if I don't misremember. (Specifying a fallback mirror, though, I guess, which then requires proper internets.)

Kind regards
