-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear release team,
I stumbled over this problem when we tried to setup a dualstacked isc-dhcp-server in wheezy.

As far as I know, Axel Beckert used the proposed fix successfully on squeeze. Could you please state, if you would accept such fix via t-p-u, if this was also fixed in unstable. This fix will enhance the IPv6-readyness in wheezy a lot, as in the next years the IPv6 rollout in corporate networks requires DHCPv6 in most cases (beside maybe parallel DHCPv4).
