Package: netbase Version: 4.39 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
>From RFC 3493 > This socket option restricts AF_INET6 sockets to IPv6 communications > only. As stated in section <3.7 Compatibility with IPv4 Nodes>, > AF_INET6 sockets may be used for both IPv4 and IPv6 communications. I don't think there is anything else to add to show that the net.ipv6.bindv6only=1 is wrong since it makes debian non compliant. I also remind that it is possible to fill bugreports to upstream authors of uncompliant software. Filling bugreports to authors of compliant software is not a good practice.
