lintian (the Debian packaging checker) recently started flagging so-called "privacy-breach" issues:

https://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/doko@debian.org.html#python2.7

python2.7-doc
W privacy-breach-generic
usr/share/doc/python2.7/html/about.html (https://docs.python.org/2/about.html)
usr/share/doc/python2.7/html/bugs.html (https://docs.python.org/2/bugs.html)
usr/share/doc/python2.7/html/c-api/abstract.html (https://docs.python.org/2/c-api/abstract.html)
[...]
and 500 more.

that's because Doc/tools/templates/layout.html hardcodes an absolute URL and there is no configure way to change it.  I don't think that local builds should point to the same single-point-of-failure URL, but use local references instead.

should *not* point to the same single-point-of-failure URL
