Bug 459933 (perl-RPC-XML)

Koji task: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=781962

Strange thing:
t/40_server..........NOK 9/54
#   Failed test 'RPC::XML::Server::url method (set)'
#   at t/40_server.t line 58.
#          got: 'http://localhost.localdomain:9000/'
#     expected: 'http://localhost:9000/'
t/40_server..........ok 24/54# Looks like you failed 1 test of 54.
t/40_server..........dubious
        Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
DIED. FAILED test 9
        Failed 1/54 tests, 98.15% okay

Is there any reason why this build fail on my computer and run ok in koji?

Oddly, I found that that particular test is highly sensitive to the order of hostnames on the loopback line in /etc/hosts.  e.g. it failed on my laptop when the line was:

127.0.0.1 athena localhost localhost.localdomain

But passed just fine when I moved 'athena' to the end of the line.

I would disable the test since it's pretty broken.

Wrapped it in a TODO. Not ideal, but then, we don't really expect it to consistently work, so...

I had similar problem with hosts test in perl packages. I thought that's problem of lazy network. Switch off this one test isn't problem for review, but it should be fixed in upstream.

Yah, and reported as such (see http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=38917 ).

Heh.  Apparently 'APPROVED' is my Pavlovian trigger...  :-)
