Package: miniupnpd
Version: 1.7-4

It seems newer versions of miniupnpd recommends using the interface name instead of IP address for "listening_ip" or -a. Then it will just get the addresses itself from the interface. This autodetection makes configuration cleaner and simpler, aids renumbering and whatnot.

According to the docs this is also required for IPv6, but for me that worked regardless. Actually it could be even more important for v6, as networks are supposed to be able to renumber themselfes (you get whole routable networks assigned over DHCP).

Not sure what to make of severity. Its pretty much a requirement for IPv6.

Hi,

Since there's no contribution in this bug, and that I'm not going to do
any upstream work for this package, I'm closing this bug (also to do bug
triaging: it's not looking like this bug will be addressed since it's
opened since 2012).

If you wish to have the feature added, please contribute a patch.

Thomas
