This autopkg run had been triggered by an upload of a new upstream
version of python3-gnupg: I don't know whether that could be related in
a subtle way

the autopkgtest queries an external server, which was recently hit by an
ai-crawler induced DDoS attack.

the server admins have now implemented some mitigation (anubis, iocaine,
fail2ban, whatnot...), which afaict has restored the service.
thanks.
