Bug#770016: further reasoning



* Holger Levsen <holger@layer-acht.org>, 2014-11-18, 13:12:
this has also already been documented as best practice (to say at least) in https://wiki.debian.org/buildd which says: "most buildds will have no network access available.

I don't believe this is currently the case, but I'd love to proven wrong. Of course, just because buildds let you do unwise things, doesn't mean it's a good idea to do them. :-)

Your package build+test process must not attempt to use the network or assume that any network interface is available."

ACK!
