Package: ppp Version: 2.2.4rel-9 Severity: normal When ppp is configured with the options demand and ipv6, and it gets an local local-link address different from the one specified in the option, it does not properly remove the old address from the interface when the connection comes up. The folowing lines are printed by pppd in the terminal:
cif6addr: ioctl(SIOCDIFADDR): No such address sif6addr: ioctl(SIOCADDRT): File exists (line 2486) The interface keeps the old ipv6 address and a new one is added. The bug is in pppd/ipv6cp.c:1224, (function ipv6cp_up): ipv6cp_clear_addrs(f->unit, go->ourid, ho->hisid); go->ourid, the new interface id, is passed as parameter to ipv6cp_clear_addrs, but the old interface id should be passed.
