It looks like netaddr-0.7.16 (released yesterday) has a regression. The following python returns True against 0.7.15, False for 0.7.16

import netaddr
value='00-B0-D0-86-BB-F7'
netaddr.valid_mac(value)

Upstream netattr bug https://github.com/drkjam/netaddr/issues/114

[David Moss (drkjam)]

Just released netaddr 0.7.17 with a fix for this. Apologies for the downstream issues caused by this.
