You could insert a print to find what url caused a problem.
Output:

Offending line is the the 4th.
Ah. I did not see anything like that in 3.1 test_urllib2. Either I just
simply missed it, or it is obscured, or it was removed because it causes
failures;-).
This is in unittest.py. It says that this test case *should* fail, but
with a different error (urllib.error.URLError) than the one you got
(gaierror).
File "/home/redt/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1269,
in file_open
return self.open_local_file(req)
File "/home/redt/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1301,
in open_local_file
(not port and socket.gethostbyname(host) in self.get_names()):
gaierror: [Errno -5] No address associated with hostname
gaierror comes from socket.gethostbyname
When I print the value of the variable 'host' in urllib2.py line 1301
I get this: somerandomhost.ontheinternet.com. This is why
socket.gethostbyname(host) raises gaierror -5, there is no address
associated to somerandomhost.ontheinternet.com. Instead the values
that 'host' takes for the other urls are localhost or 127.0.0.1, both
valid for gethostbyname().
Any hint?
Remove the offending fake url.
If you want to investigate the history of the file, go to
http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release27-maint/Lib/test/test_urllib2.py?view=log
If you do not get an answer here, file a bug report. If you can, put
orsenthil,benjamin.peterson,ezio.melotti
on the nosy list, as they are recent committers to this file. Say I said
to do so if you want. Add tjreedy also so I can see responses and learn too.
