Looking a bit further:

So the problem is related to nvidia-cg-toolkit.
Looking at nvidia-cg-toolkit briefly leads me to the guess that the
http_proxy in my build environment (which points to a local apt
proxy) causes the problem.

OTOH even if the http_proxy could be seen as an individual problem
this package won't build without internet access.
