Hi there, I know that resolving IPv6 addresses is an ongoing problem in Linux, but disabling IPv6 helped in the past. BUT: Even after totally disabling IPv6 I have big problems with zypper and/or aria2c, when I try to install or update packages. It takes ages, because the resolver still tries to resolve AAAA addresses resulting in some 5 sec timeouts. Related issues: a) IPv6 is compiled statically into the kernel. Why not as module like in the past ? b) Therefore, disabling IPv6 using yast2 does not work. c) Disabling IPv6 in /etc/sysctl.conf by "net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1" does also not work. d) Disabling IPv6 with "ipv6.disable=1" as boot parameter does work. But again, even though IPv6 seems to be disabled using method d) the resolver within the Yast Software Manager still tries AAAA lookups. All other clients (Firefox, KDE browser konqueror, Opera, wget, etc.) do not have these lookup problems after disabling IPv6. How can I fix that ?
