Comment:
Yes, there are better ways -- we can and do use the @skipUnless and
@skipIf decorators, and we use mock services when possible. In this case,
nobody has got around to providing a patch that either skips/expected
fails the test when there's no network connection, or provides a mock for
urllib (or whatever needs to be mocked in this case).
A patch to do either of these would certainly be welcome; I'd probably
prefer a mock to a skipped test, but I could live with either if a mock
turns out to be too hard to achieve.
Also - this is the second report (c.f. #16686) where you've referred to
"the" Ubuntu build machines. Which build machines are you referring to
here?
