We will not enable ipv6 by default.
Next release will permit on gui ( system settings ) to enable ipv6.

Regards,

E.

PS: Currently, you are the only one to complain about ipv6 and we had a lot of complain from users having issue because of ipv6 not working. But we want to be fair. So you will have a gui checkbox to facilitate ipv6 activation.

ON EV-NG server edit /etc/gai.conf and look for #precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100 and then remove # to uncomment it. RESULT: you don't disable IPv6 and apt-get update will work ipo hanging/timing out on IPv6 servers.
Hope it helps a little

What keeps disabling IPv6 and why? at least it should not disable pnet0 ipv6, it's almost 2020 disabling v6 isn't a good practice
I'm getting the same problem

Thanks for the entry in the GUI, I think it's a good compromise.

I'm one of those in the countries where IPv6 is flaky. I'm curious though what issues they were facing besides APT. (Search of the forums shows mostly apt issues).

For my other systems I tend to put something like this in a file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ - say 99forceIPv4:

Code: Select all

Acquire::ForceIPv4 "true";

Hey guys! Just wanted to share a quick tip with you all. So, I was having trouble downloading EVE on my Ubuntu because it turns out that Ubuntu doesn't offer downloads from IPv6. Just a little heads up in case any of you are running into the same issue! Stay awesome! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

IPv6 is already done for EVE long time ago
