In my opinion we should treat these issues as Alpine / musl libc platform bugs and ask the Alpine maintainers to look into the issue. The tests are passing on Linux with glibc and BSD platforms (FreeBSD, macOS, ...) with BSD libc. It is reasonable to assume that failing test are caused by incompatibilities or deficiencies in musl libc, or by a different interpretation of POSIX and Open Group standards. I would not ignore or skip any test unless we have a thorough understanding of the problem and the deviation is documented. The issue can also affect user code. Python's test suite is exhaustive. Our tests have found a fair amount of problems in e.g, libm. A couple of years ago ine of my AF_ALG socket tests even found a Kernel bug by triggered a Kernel fault. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46390> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
