Package: manpages Version: 3.27-1 Severity: normal I today discovered undocumented feature of resolv.conf Nameply nameserver can be a IPv6 address! Current manpage (implicitly) says only IPv4 is supported.
So for example: ================== nameserver 2001:470:20::2 nameserver 149.156.82.205 search smp.if.uj.edu.pl ================== will work PS. Manpage also misses the important fact that empty lines, and lines begining (?) from # are ignored. I was always thinking that putting # will make some error, as it was no information in manpage about it, but I found that resolvconf put # automatically so i assume it works. There are probably few other syntax rules, which are not mentioned. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to pl_PL.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash manpages depends on no packages. manpages recommends no packages.
