Ronald Oussoren added the comment: There is no need to unconditionally skip the test. The cacert.org root certificate is not present on most systems, I just happened to have imported it into my keychain.
I've removed the cacert root from my keychain and test_ssl now passed without a patch. I agree that is it not worthwhile to pursue this further and will therefore close this issue as "wont fix". ---------- resolution: -> wont fix stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed type: -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15740> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
