Floris Bruynooghe added the comment: I think this is influenced by what you have in /etc/hosts. On my laptop I also have IPv6 loopback as well as an IPv6 link-local on eth0. But I have both 127.0.0.1 and ::1 in /etc/hosts as locahost. With that configuration I get the same getaddrinfo results as on the solaris host (which btw, has the same /etc/hosts configuration for localhost, i.e. both IPv4 & IPv6). Basically I don't think loopback and link-local addresses count as "configured address" for getaddrinfo.
Btw, removing the "::1 localhost" line from /etc/hosts on the solaris host does fix the issue and gives the same results you show. But I don't think this is correct. My linux laptop behaves exactly the same as the solaris host here. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15617> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
