[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#795685: biojava4-live: FTBFS: UnknownHostException: eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

[Chris West (Faux)]

Source: biojava4-live
Version: 4.1.0+dfsg-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source

Dear Maintainer,

The package fails to build without networking, which we believe is a
policy violation.  Ubuntu may have a patch, as they also enforce this:
