[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#830193: libuv: accesses the internet during build

[Saúl Ibarra Corretgé]

Hi,

libuv upstream here. This is (most likely) due to the test suite. Given 
libuv is a i/o library it does some i/o with the outside world in a few 
tests. What is the policy for these kind of packages?

Debian could have a patch skipping those tests, but I doubt we'd apply 
them upstream.


Regards,
