Dear all,

While installing tools from chapter 8 , I stumbled on an error in test which
wasn't referenced in the book and do not appear in the reference log.
In section 8.53. Python-3.14.3, the test_urlib2 and .test_urllibnet fails,
because they can't resolve the host name 'www.pythontest.net'. And indeed, in
chroot environment,
I can't ping by host names, only by ip.

I managed to bypass this test by adding www.pythontest.net to hosts, after
which these tests passes on second pass.

But I'm still unsure, should the system at this stage be able to resolve host
names or not:
 On one side, no mention of this error in book, and no error reported in
reference logs
On other side, in the same chapter, when discussing pip, book states: "Since
domain name resolution is not yet configured".

So should I carry on, or go back and reinstall inetutils?

Thanks in advance
