Package: libnet-dns-perl Version: 0.78-1 Severity: normal Affects: lintian I was using lintian to check some packages and noticed that it is now slow as hell. A quick check showed that some perl stuff is sending bogus DNS requests over my lo device. This seems to be this perl script in _select_dns_method.
I am using network-manager in an IPv6 network and my /etc/resolv.conf contains entries like: search real.example.org nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver fe80::211:22ff:fe33:4455%wlan0 nameserver 2a01:1234:4568:abcd:ef01:2345:6781:abcd And now I see a DNS query for fe80::::211:22ff:fe33:4455%wlan0 through my lo device when I am trying to start lintian on a package. This is a bogus query for a valid IPv6 link-lokal address nameserver entry and takes ages before it stops the query attempt and actually starts the rest of the lintian tests --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 Debian Release: jessie/sid 500 unstable http.debian.net --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed =========================================-+-============== perl (>= 5.18.2-5) | 5.18.2-6 perlapi-5.18.2 | libc6 (>= 2.4) | libdigest-hmac-perl (>= 1.01) | libio-socket-inet6-perl | libmime-base64-perl | libnet-ip-perl (>= 1.2) | Package's Recommends field is empty.
