[issue39991] test_uuid.test_netstat_getnode() fails on FreeBSD VM: uuid._netstat_getnode() uses IPv6 address as MAC address

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

My fix is incomplete: the IPv6 address "123:2:3:4:5:6:7:8" is a valid IPv6 address and uuid.py accepts it as a valid MAC address, whereas it's not a MAC address.
