Ran 74 tests in 6.595s
FAILED (errors=2)
test test_ftplib failed -- multiple errors occurred
1 test failed:
test_ftplib
The reason is that support.HOST is 'localhost'. and on most machines, localhost
is an alias for 127.0.0.1, and not the IPv6 loopback, so the address resolution
fails.
One possible solution is simply to pass ::1 (IPv6 loopback address) instead of
support.HOST.
Patch attached.
