This issue is currently at a standstill: seemingly the used helper tool
gftools at its core rely on network access to infuse subsets from other
font sources during compilation of a font. Help figuring out how to
build Noto fonts offline (with gftools or bypassing it) is much
appreciated.
This is the kind of error I get:
