[New-bugs-announce] [issue22753] urllib2 localnet Changed test to lookup IP-address of localhost

[Håkan Lövdahl]

New submission from Håkan Lövdahl:

Running this test gave me an error: 
./python -m test -v test_urllib2_localnet

ERROR: test_proxy_qop_auth_works (test.test_urllib2_localnet.ProxyAuthTests)

Changing "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" made the test pass. My friend puppet made a patch for it so it looks up the IP-address.
