Hi. Thanks for the report. Could you investigate if the tests/runtime-ipv6.c program return appropriately? It is supposed to check wether the runtime system supports IPv6 or not, and should detect this properly on your system (or there is a bug in the self-test code elsewhere). Looking at the code, I don't think a getaddrinfo-lookup is sufficient, the code probably need to attempt to listen to a socket too, in order to fully test wether IPv6 is disabled globally or not. /Simon > inetutils test suite log contents: > > ``` > =============================================== > GNU inetutils 1.9.4: tests/test-suite.log > =============================================== > > # TOTAL: 15 > # PASS: 8 > # SKIP: 6 > # XFAIL: 0 > # FAIL: 1 > # XPASS: 0 > # ERROR: 0 > > .. contents:: :depth: 2 > > SKIP: ping-localhost.sh > ======================= > > ping needs to run as root > SKIP ping-localhost.sh (exit status: 77) > > SKIP: traceroute-localhost.sh > ============================= > > traceroute needs to run as root > SKIP traceroute-localhost.sh (exit status: 77) > > SKIP: tftp.sh > ============= > > The use of the superserver Inetd in this script requires > the availability of "/etc/nsswitch.conf", "/etc/passwd", and > "/etc/protocols".
