Hi Chris, Thank you for your report, I have informed upstream on their issue tracker. About the point of policy violation, the package has d/t/control restriction "needs-internet" as described below from autopkgtest documentation README.package-tests.rst: | needs-internet | The test needs unrestricted internet access, e.g. to download test data | that's not shipped as a package, or to test a protocol implementation | against a test server. Please also see the note about Network access later | in this document. I believe that if the autopkgtest should not attempt to reach the internet from our infrastructure, then maybe such tests should be skipped, since they are clearly identified as such in their d/t/control information. That being said, I agree I am not fan of tests which require connectivity, because as seen once again, they are fragile and break as soon as the remote resource is taken down, corrupted, etc. Hopefully this is fixable by shipping new test data, but in the meantime, the only way out seems to disable autopkgtest. Have a nice day, :) -- .''`.
