It is not possible to enable network access inside the build container.
If it were, build processes would no longer be deterministic, and we
would lose a lot of reproducibility guarantees!

You'll need to supply whatever external resources the package needs as
"native-inputs", and then tell the build system how to access those
inputs instead of downloading them from the network.
