Yet another solution would be to upstream a patch that adds the @unittest.skipIf(os.getenv('TESTS_NO_NETWORK_ACCESS') == '1', 'No network access allowed in test suite') decorator for all tests that are affected. While a full skip is not something upstream will want to merge, any reasonable upstream should be willing to merge this conditional skip. Then just set the environment variable in debian/rules and you don't need to carry a patch. Regards, Christian
