:) Well, I asked about it just recently, and the maintainer's main
reason is that it's not acceptable to have a package that requires
an internet connection to be useful. I agree that it's not a good
way to use gnulib, which is why I'm switching to using it from git.
You do not need a internet connection to compile a project that uses
gnulib, the project will include whatever parts of gnulib it uses.
