I agree that the address should be pingable, I just wanted to understand
the problem better before I forward it upstream:

Dear Lennart,

it was reported that libnss-myhostname may report an IPv6 address for
the local hostname that is not pingable, as it is a link scoped address,
and it was suggested that it not do that. Do you agree and can you fix
it?

Thanks a lot,
Joachim
