 lang/cargo/issues/1614#issuecomment-124608090 a discussion around similar
 issues on the cargo issue tracker], I'm more convinced that the "let cargo
 run once and then let it run in offline mode" solution is the better
 option to go with.

 the phase in the Gitian build where all the dependencies are fetched and
 would copy over the result to the build VM (along with the tor source
 code) and could do the building itself offline then, right? If so, sounds
 good to me.

 Yes, this appears to be the case. That's a good point that this model
 already works well with Gitian.
