Comment 5 for bug 1056820

These test failures seem to be caused by chardet... again. If you install 5.1.2 into a (Python 2) virtualenv without chardet, all but one of the tests passes. Run in an environment with python-chardet and the test suite gets tons of failures. We hit similar problems with Python 3 and removed python3-chardet from the deps. We should revert the earlier Ubuntu delta that added python-chardet as a build-dep. I'll try that and see if the remaining failure can be worked around or disabled.
