Package: netbase
Version: 4.40
At some point, /etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf silently changed the value
of net.ipv6.bindv6only. This file claims that "this is the default
behaviour of almost all modern operating systems", which is obviously
false.
This change, brought by some serious case of OpenBSD envy ("let's
gratuitiously break a bunch of software and be incompatible with
everyone else because we're oh-so-smart") has the following
consequences:
* it is incompatible with other Linux systems;
* it contradicts RFC 3493 Section 3.7;
* it breaks a bunch of software, notably all Java software.
Somebody fucked up on this one. Please revert the default.
