(by pjdc) There was an attempted fix for this committed for bug 2012099, but the results don't appear in the charmhub-published version on edge (15) perhaps because the fix was implemented via a Makefile, which charmcraft.yaml (and therefore the Launchpad builders) do not invoke.

I'm currently running from a local charm generated with "make build", which works nicely.

The suggested workaround is not ideal for most of our environments because egress traffic is strictly filtered.
