I cloned the CPython repo, and ran the tests as instructed in the devguide. All of them either passed or were skipped, but test_concurrent_futures failed with this error:

Error:
Exception in thread Thread-21:

    r, w, e = select.select(r, w, e, timeout)

Is this normal? Can I continue developing? Thanks!

did you check to see if the file existed?
This could be a permission error, and you may have to clone as administrator (sudo),
