no, it's not like that. you are using a specific mirror via http, while the host could use a file:// mirror via nfs or rsync or just /var/cache/apt/archives. -> your build results are unreliable and unpredictable. (you = your packages build process, the host = the stuff which prepares the build environment) we've discussed this briefly on #debian-devel today and now there is #770016 "Clarify network access for building packages in main" against debian-policy to document this properly. cherrs, Holger
