Comment (by jmalcolm):

 I don't fully understand Zooko's suggestion in ticket:1220#comment:21
 above, probably because I know very little about python packaging. Here's
 what I would want:

 1) A way for there to be no network activity, of any kind, when building
 or installing Tahoe-LAFS

 that implies:

 2) Whether or not network activity is available, a build or install should
 have the same behavior - either it works, as it can find all dependencies,
 or it can't, so it fails
