Package: wicd Version: 1.7.4+tb2-2 Severity: important Tags: upstream ipv6 Hi,
I found this over the weekend at FOSDEM. Their default wifi network is v6 only, with no v4 config at all. This would be fine for me (all the services I need are functional on v6), but wicd does not work on such a network. I've dug into this, and I can see why. If DHCP doesn't return a v4 lease on a connection attempt (dhcp_failed), it aborts the connection. I've started to hack on this a little bit over the weekend to see if there's an easy fix (if no v4 lease acquired, check to see if a global v6 address has been assigned), but I ran out of time to test this properly. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages wicd depends on: ii wicd-cli [wicd-client] 1.7.4+tb2-2 ii wicd-curses [wicd-client] 1.7.4+tb2-2 ii wicd-daemon 1.7.4+tb2-2 ii wicd-gtk [wicd-client] 1.7.4+tb2-2 wicd recommends no packages. wicd suggests no packages.
