Package: curl
Version: 7.15.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Curl provides a -6 option to force ipv6 lookups only.
I'd like also a -4 option to force ipv4 lookups only.
This way I could work around being stuck behind a hardware DNS server
that times out on ipv6 requests, costing me 10 seconds on each use of curl.
