When running perlqt-4.14.3 tests, qtgui/t/networkfortune.t hangs here: $ perl -I/home/test/fedora/perl-Qt/perlqt-4.14.3/build/blib/{arch,lib} /home/test/fedora/perl-Qt/perlqt-4.14.3/qtgui/t/networkfortune.t Config: Using QTest library 4.8.7, Qt 4.8.7 ok 1 - Window shown PASS : NetworkFortuneTest::initTestCase() and a dialog window about "connection refused by peer" error appears. The reason is that the testing server listens on IPv4 0.0.0.0 address, but the client having "Localhost" host name (qtgui/examples/network/fortuneclient/Client.pm:69) connects to IPv6 ::1, receives ECONNREFUSED and does not retry next associated Localhost address, IPv4 127.0.0.1, that would succeed. This is probably bug in Qt::TcpSocket::connectToHost() (called from sub requestNewFortune() in fortuneclient/Client.pm). It gives up on first connection error instead of trying all addresses resolved from given host name. Simple workaround in the the Perl binding tests is to connect to 127.0.0.1 instead of Localhost. But I think the real bug is Qt library and it should be fixed there.
Created attachment 104539 [details] Test work around This replaces the "Localhost" with "127.0.0.1" in the client. Feel free to apply or better reassign to Qt C library component.
Thank you for reporting this issue in KDE software. As it has been a while since this issue was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the issue with a recent software version? If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "REPORTED" when replying. Thank you!
I cannot reproduce it with current software version because perlqt requires for building smokeqt which was removed from my distribution (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1676813). Hence I cannot compile perlqt-4.14.3 and test it.
