Hi Cyprien!  :-)

In theory yes, but as you found out, it’s not well tested.

The way we’d normally addressing in the test suite is by testing:

  (provided? 'socket)

and/or:

  (provided? 'net-db)

and throwing to unresolved or skipping tests altogether.

Would you like to propose a patch that does that for all the instances
that you found?

Thanks!

Ludo’.
