Subject: MySQL does not support IPv6
Package: mysql-server
Version: 4.0.24-2
Severity: wishlist

AFAICT, there's no way to run mysql-server on a ipv6 port.

There are some patches available here:
        <http://www.ngn.euro6ix.org/IPv6/mysql/>
... but I can't vouch for them.

Is there no IPv6 support upstream? It seems odd that such an important
open-source server is not ported yet.
