[Python-Dev] [Python-checkins] buildbot failure in sparc Debian 3.0

[Jeremy Hylton]

Does anyone have a clue about why this test fails only on this
platform?  The test is question is verifying that URLError gets
raised.  From the traceback, it appears that there is an uncaught
exception (URLError) but it fails in an assertRaises() check for
URLError.  That doesn't make much sense unless the variable URLError
refers to different objects, but both modules use "from urllib.error
import URLError".  And, of course, the test works fine on other
platforms.
