Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager
The IPv4 address space is exhausted at the top level. ISPs soon will (at least I hope instead of Carrier level NAT) start using IPv6, necessitating support for IPv6 on PPPoE connections. Right now nm-connection-editor only shows the IPv6 page for ethernet and wifi connections. IPv6 over PPP apparently exists (RFC 5072 http://tools.ietf.org/html//rfc5072). See also https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593813, which is about IPv6 + PPPoE/mobile/VPN.
