Hi,

While testing the installation of all packages in unstable, I ran
into the following problem:

The full build log is available from:

It is reproducible by installing your package in a clean chroot, using
the debconf Noninteractive frontend, and priority: critical.

This test was carried out using about 50 AMD64 nodes of the Grid'5000
platform.  Internet was not accessible from the nodes.
