Perhaps the earlier packages weren't built using a tool that disables
network access? the get_rdataset function will attempt to download the

solution.

I verified which was which and deleted the obsolete branch.

use detrout-python3-try2 (the only detrout branch that should be left)

I really wish that listing the citation for these early scientific
datasets counted as complying with the license.
