Installing Python 3.4.2 on CentOS 6.  Clean install.  Using procedure in README file:

./configure
make
make test

2 tests fail in "make test" The first one is because the FTP client
test is trying to test against a site that is long gone, the Digital Equipment Corporation Systems Research Center in Palo Alto:

ERROR: test_ftp (test.test_urllib2net.OtherNetworkTests) (url='ftp://gatekeeper.research.compaq.com/pub/DEC/SRC/research-reports/00README-Legal-Rules-Regs')

    sock.connect(sa)

The second one is failing because "readline" (probably GNU readline) didn't behave as expected. The installed GCC is
"gcc (GCC) 4.4.6 20110731 (Red Hat 4.4.6-3)", which came with
"CentOS release 6.2 (Final)".  This is a long-running production server.
Is that too old?

The first test passes for me (although granted we should move that test to a psf hosted target, but we're slowly working on that general issue). The second is a bug in readline (see issue 19884).

The test_ftp connection timeout error failure (seen on some platforms) is a duplicate of Issue22289.

The test_readline failure is a duplicate of, among others, Issue22647 and is believed to no longer occur with the current Python 3.4.3 (released 2015-02-25) and a GNU readline >= 6.3.
