Python 3.13 test failure: `test_ip_address_ipv6_ipv4_mapped`

[suve]

In Fedora Rawhide (the development branch / "eternal alpha" version) we've recently updated to Python 3.13.0b4 pre-release. With this new version, the following test failure can be observed:

FAIL: test_ip_address_ipv6_ipv4_mapped (tests.test_ip_address.MyTests.test_ip_address_ipv6_ipv4_mapped)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm fully aware that Python 3.13.0b4 is a pre-release, which makes testing difficult, so this issue will probably have to wait until the final 3.13.0 release. You can consider this a heads-up. ;-)

For reference, the Python 3.13 "what's new" page currently lists the following changes:

ipaddress

• Add the ipaddress.IPv4Address.ipv6_mapped property, which returns the IPv4-mapped IPv6 address. (Contributed by Charles Machalow in gh-109466.)

• Fix is_global and is_private behavior in IPv4Address, IPv6Address, IPv4Network and IPv6Network.

Sorry for not contributing a fix, but my Python knowledge doesn't really extend past FizzBuzz level.

Hi there - thanks for reporting this. I believe this is a duplicate of #572 and will be fixed in the next release.

Edit: unless this is a new issue from 3.13 we need to address? It looks like the other issue fixed a change in 6to4 addresses but this is affecting mapped addresses. Will have to investigate.

[suve]

I think this is a new issue. It affects a different test, and applying the patch from PR #573 does not help.

[kellyjonbrazil]

Looks like this is caused by:

python/cpython#87799

python/cpython#29345

[kellyjonbrazil]

I'm working on a fix, but have opened a cpython issue that I think might need to be addressed as well: python/cpython#123409

[kellyjonbrazil]

python/cpython#123409 is in process of being patched: python/cpython#123419

[kellyjonbrazil]

It looks like the CPython issue has been addressed and will be fixed in the next 3.13 release. I have committed some changes that should fix this issue and tests when the latest Python release comes out.

71af0c5

[suve]

So, now that Python 3.13 is out - jc v1.25.3 builds fine and all tests pass, provided one backports the following two commits: 9eb4df3 and 71af0c5.

As such, this issue should be fixed for everyone in the next release.

[kellyjonbrazil]

Now available in release v1.25.4
