It's not really an IPv6 problem, it's due to unavailability of the IPv4 access. Explanation: IPv4 is tried first, when it fails IPv6 is tried, and when that fails, that is the error report you see.
How can we tell zypper and Yast NOT to use IPv6?
Because this time it is a network problem with the main download server, but now and then people hit a mirror server which resolves as IPv6 and thus fails.
We need something to tell the code that does the downloading in yast and zypper to not even try IPv6 addresses. It is becoming a problem.
I have not experienced that at all, I guess it depends on which mirrors you get redirected to. I'm surprised that we should have IPv6-only mirrors, but I guess it's not entirely unreasonable.
Carlos, I've checked all the openSUSE mirrors from http://mirrors.opensuse.org/list/all.html, and none of them are IPv6-only. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (16.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
