Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: module-init-tools

Closing bug 24828 (by blacklisting the IPv6 module) made my IPv6
disappear. I use autoconfiguration, and now the module isn't loaded
anymore.

The blacklist file speaks of ifupdown -- but I don't see a way of
enabling it using autoconfiguration in /etc/network/interfaces --
interfaces(5) only talks about 'manual', 'loopback', or 'static'.

Removing IPv6 support is a bug. All major operating systems (Vista, OS
X) have IPv6 support out of the box now.

** Affects: module-init-tools (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
