--- Comment #9 from Ralf Haferkamp
Well, we can't have it both ways. Either we do return ipv6 addresses when there's no interface with ipv6, or we don't. bug 706719 is about a system where there's no ipv6 interface, but still expects a ipv6 address to be returned. It doesn't expect an IPv6 to be returned. It only expects not to get the same IPv4 address returned twice. And at least according to the "ip" output there is an IPv6 address configured for lo (though I might just have missunderstood you):
1: lo:
I would be inclined to say that this expectation is wrong, and indeed the past years changes in the resolver always worked towards not returning ipv6 addresses for machines were it's reasonable sure that it doesn't have ipv6. That would be ok, but why is it returning 127.0.0.1 twice, now?
