ISTR that being due to a faulty/partially working ipv6 setup on your side.
Obviously! My router doesn't have IPv6 to Internet.
No, that is not obvious, Carlos - if you don't have _any_ ipv6 setup, your setup is not faulty nor partial. In that case, no need to edit /etc/gai.conf. Otherwise we would be shipping a very poor default.
But it should be obvious to you, I have commented with you that my router doesn't have IPv6 connectivity :-)
In which case there is no need to amend /etc/gai.conf. That's all I'm saying. As I said, ISTR going through this a couple years back and discovering you had a partial or faulty IPv6 setup.
But I do need it. I have problems without doing that change.
Well, there is something not quite right with your setup then. I'm sure we've been over this before. Something about your router "pretending" it has IPv6, but with no ipv6 uplink.
