[bug #25247] gnustep-base takes ages to compile on i386 buildds

[matt rice]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #25247 (project gnustep):

um, if you look at the build logs from the link

e.g.
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15846995/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-i386.gnustep-base_1.16.1-2ubuntu1_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz

this accounts for most of the 12 hours...
the reason this doesn't happen with other architectures appears to be that
during the x86 build it builds the documentation which is platform
independent, so the other platforms don't run into this. 

it appears the ubuntu build system disallows 
a) creating stuff outside of the build directory
b) network connections from the build environment

which is ok IMHO...

the irony in all of this is the url http://www.gnustep.org/gsdoc-1_0_3.xml
leads to a 404 not found...
