in my case, it returns this:
```python
>>> import socket
>>> socket.gethostname()
'Linux'
>>> socket.getaddrinfo(socket.gethostname(), None, socket.AF_INET,
socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
[(2, 2, 17, '', ('127.0.1.1', 0))]
```
127.0.1.1 is also present in my /etc/hosts
i assume they are different because no error is printed. I tried several
different approaches, and when i got no (python) error and only the timeout,
further investigation showed that the resolved ip did not match 127.0.1.1.
