Bug#701884: kfreebsd: unknown method 'inet6 auto'
Control: tags -1 serious Justification: if an IPv6 route announcement is seen at install time, the kfreebsd-* system would have no network connectivity on first boot, ifup will fail and even the loopback interface will not be set up. Also IPv6 and GNU/kFreeBSD are both still release goals I believe. This has been fixed in sid for some time but we absolutely must see it fixed in wheezy.

I would have put the sysctl first, and then bring up the interface; not sure if it makes any difference though really. Also, on kfreebsd, are -q and -e valid options to sysctl (not sure if it's implemented the same way or is it a BSD-specific utility there)? Yes I just tried the sysctl and it works as intended.

Both are supported[0], kFreeBSD has a additional -p option that is
supported by a wrapper.
Well, that page says things different from procps' sysctl's
manpage. Is sysctl a wrapper to provide usual command-line options,
when a real sysctl is somewhere under /lib or something?
Exactly, well for providing -p:
% cat /sbin/sysctl
#!/bin/sh
set -e
args=
quiet=false
use_sysctl_conf=false
while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
case $1 in
-q) quiet=true ;;
-p) use_sysctl_conf=true ;;
*) if [ -n ${args} ] ; then args=${args} $1 ; else
args=$1 ; fi ;; esac
shift
done
if ${quiet} ; then
if ${use_sysctl_conf} ; then
sed /etc/sysctl.conf -e s/\( \|\t\)*//g -e /^#/d -e /^$/d \
| (while read i ; do /lib/freebsd/sysctl ${args} ${i}
| /dev/null ; done)
else
/lib/freebsd/sysctl ${args} /dev/null
fi
else
if ${use_sysctl_conf} ; then
sed /etc/sysctl.conf -e s/\( \|\t\)*//g -e /^#/d -e /^$/d \
| (while read i ; do /lib/freebsd/sysctl ${args} ${i} ; done)
else
exec /lib/freebsd/sysctl ${args}
fi
fi
So, what is better to do: to use the wrapper, or to
call /lib/freebsd/sysctl directly?

Even if we would decide to drop the wrapper /sbin/sysctl should still be around while the /lib/freebsd/sysctl might go away.

I think you should just use whatever is in the path, consistent with GNU/Linux. (Currently on GNU/kFreeBSD this is the wrapper for our own sysctl).

There is only an 'inet6 dhcp' (which implements stateful DHCPv6). The other methods (static, manual) are not really suitable for SLAAC.
