Hi again. I did new tests and the package, when building, downloads lots of files from http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary.
The download files at build time is discouraged because: 1. The package can be afected by a worm or can act as a spyware. 2. The package can't be built offline. Maybe it will make the package non-free, because now we can have discrimination against persons that no have Internet access (see DFSG[1]). The Debian Policy §2.2.1 says: "2.2.1 The main archive area The main archive area comprises the Debian distribution. Only the packages in this area are considered part of the distribution. None of the packages in the main archive area require software outside of that area to function. [...] In addition, the packages in main: - must not require or recommend a package outside of main for compilation or execution [...]". 3. The buildd system, that builds packages in Debian, don't have access to the Internet. 4. The "injected" files can violate the original license of the upstream source code.
