Currently we are not checking family type of the address before printing the message.
Do we have to print the message as [3ffe:b80:17e2::1]:80 for ipv6 and |10.0.0.1|:80 for ipv4? Please confirm so I will resubmit patch. Thanks Sasi Note: I didn't get the reply to my mail, to keep track the discussion I had copied the mail content from the mailing list. Shouldn't IPv6 addresses be displayed like this instead: [3ffe:b80:17e2::1]:80 /hh Den 5 jan 2012 14:15 skrev "Sasikanth" <address@hidden>: > Hi, > > This very small change related to display issue. > The bug id is 32357 "https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?32357"; > > When we run wget with an ip address alone (wget 10.0.0.1 or wget > http://10.0.0.1/ or wget http://[3ffe:b80:17e2::1]) > the display shows as > > IPV4 > Connecting to 10.0.0.1:80... > IPV6 > Connecting to 3ffe:b80:17e2::1:80 (Because of IPV6 format (ff::01) it is > little hard differentiate the ipv6 address and port number) > > This patch will show the display > > IPV4 > Connecting to |10.0.0.1|:80... > IPV6 > Connecting to |3ffe:b80:17e2::1|:80 > > > Thanks > Sasi
