New submission from James Crowther:

Currently I can't use socket to resolve host names to IP addresses. This is 
something critical to mine as well as other applications that run over 
networks. 
When I attempt to do the following:

import socket
socket.getaddrinfo(hostname, None)

or 

socket.gethostbyname(hostname)

I get 

socket.gaierror: [Errno 8] nodename nor servename provided, or not known.

This works perfectly on both linux kubuntu 16.0. and windows 7,10. 

Seems that the introduction of Yosemite might be the point at which this broke 
by doing a simple google search for "macos socket.gethostbyname gaierror".
