The main issue is that when you run the test suite in a chroot (to do "pure" builds) or in a network sandbox (for other functions). I get the following errors: ====================================================================== ERROR: testGetServBy (test.test_socket.GeneralModuleTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/nix-build-python-3.3.4.drv-0/Python-3.3.4/Lib/test/test_socket.py", line 840, in testGetServBy raise socket.error OSError ====================================================================== ERROR: testGetaddrinfo (test.test_socket.GeneralModuleTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/nix-build-python-3.3.4.drv-0/Python-3.3.4/Lib/test/test_socket.py", line 1126, in testGetaddrinfo socket.getaddrinfo(HOST, "http") socket.gaierror: [Errno -8] Servname not supported for ai_socktype ====================================================================== ERROR: test_idna (test.test_socket.GeneralModuleTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/nix-build-python-3.3.4.drv-0/Python-3.3.4/Lib/test/test_socket.py", line 1186, in test_idna socket.gethostbyname('\u0438\u0441\u043f\u044b\u0442\u0430\u043d\u0438\u0435.python.org') socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20868> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
