While doing a mass rebuild for GCC 7 on Fedora Rawhide the following test failed:

I've seen this flake a lot. It seems to be more common in python 3.

[hobbes1069]

Do we know if it's a real failure or just the test itself not being python3 compatible?

[jterrace]

Not really sure honestly. I've spent some time multiple times trying to root cause the flake, and I haven't been able to figure out what the root cause is.

[hobbes1069]

Well, this is sitting FTBFS on Fedora Rawhide. I think for now I'll just skip the tests for the python 3 package. Not ideal though...
