So Debian deliberately cripple their test environment, run the network
tests for an editor which can do network access, and we have to adapt
our tests? I am not amused.

I guess we could wrap them all in

(skip-unless (dns-query "google.com"))

instead of the getenv "EMACS_HYDRA_CI" stuff, assuming Debian donʼt
complain about that as well.

PS And since when did 'does not pass all tests' become 'fails to build
from source'?
