Lib/test/test_mimetools.py

[matt@console-pimps.org]

Hi,

in the file Lib/test/test_mimetools. py on line 30 the call to
mimetools.choos e_boundary() fails if the machine that the tests are
running on does not have a hostname that maps to an IP address.

I would have thought that the test should be 'skipped' rather than fail?

I don't know if this has been discussed before but any feedback would be
appreciated.

Would any body be interested in a patch to make the test skip if
hostname does not have an designated IP?

Thanks
