     Hi,
     
     I'm working on libupnp. The 'check phase gives the following error:
     
     Initializing UPnP ...
     ** ERROR UpnpInit(): -208 UPNP_E_SOCKET_ERROR
     FAIL: test_init
     
     In spite of this, if I "guix environment" and run the test binary it 
succeeds:
     
     Initializing UPnP ...
     UPnP Initialized OK ip=192.168.0.5, port=49152
     
     I suppose that sockets can't be accessed during the build phase. Is
     that correct?

local sockets (AF_UNIX) can be.  But the only Internet sockets accessible are 
those on the local (lo) interface.
All other interfaces are disabled.
