[New-bugs-announce] [issue15338] test_UNC_path failure in test_import

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr>:

On the Win64 buildbot, trying to access an UNC path raises PermissionError, which makes a test fail:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_UNC_path (test.test_import.PathsTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\buildbot.python.org\3.x.kloth-win64\build\lib\test\test_import.py", line 469, in test_UNC_path
    os.listdir(unc)
PermissionError: [Error 5] Access is denied: '\\\\hades\\D$\\buildbot.python.org\\3.x.kloth-win64\\build\\build\\test_python_3612\\@test_3612_tmp\\*.*'


If this is expected or normal, maybe we should simply skip the test when the listdir() call above fails.
