Launchpad fails to clone https://github.com/LibreOffice/translations.git in snapcraft build

There's a one-hour timeout on network access, counting from the start of the build. (In theory we could raise this, but it's a useful defence and I don't want to do so indefinitely.) Even though it's no longer strictly always required, you should try to do all your network access in the pull phase, which in this case should have the effect of doing it before time-consuming build tasks. Can you arrange to do these git clones in the pull phase?

Pulling stuff during build() instead of doing it in pull() proper is a workaround for bug 1649620. see: https://git.launchpad.net/~bjoern-michaelsen/df-libreoffice/+git/libreoffice-snap-playground/commit/?id=0237177276bcfc56abfba89626652c9202a271ff

So:

> Can you arrange to do these git clones in the pull phase?

not quite.

But the timeout is an helpful hint, actually even as is, the pulling is supposed to happen at the start of build(), not later. I will try to adjust this.

This Worked for Me(tm). Unsure what to do with this bug status though: the problem is worked around for me, but might still be an issue for others. => Leaving it to your discretion if it should be closed.
