Right..  So the patch is not needed.

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
