[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Dear Guix,

The build for gst-plugins-base is failing, breaking the builds of quite
a few dependent packages.  The attached patch disables the two tests
that are failing.

It seems that both tests attempt to set-up or connect to a TCP socket on
"localhost".  Would this work in the build environment?

Is it OK to apply the following patch to fix the build for this package?

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen

Right..  So the patch is not needed.
