[3.0.2] sphinx doc hang when building on the Debian infra

[picca]

the Debian infrastructure si not connected to internet in order to avoid security issues. so the network is not accessible during the build.

It seems that the documentation try to access something on internet when I run the sphinx-build script.

I am wondering if this is not something related to the get_package_summary_from_pypi...

I can patch this part but maybe the best solution would be to generate these file at release time.

Cheers

Fred

If I do a strace on the hang process...
