I've provided the maintainer and upstream with a patch to skip the incomplete IPv6 address. But the maintainer is waiting for feedback from upstream, and this seem to take forever. I suspect we should figure out how to handle this on our own. > I've asked the maintainer for a change in libnss-myhostname.

I suggest we upload our own version to our repository, hope we pick a version number that is smaller than the next upload to unstable with a fix and that the maintainer or upstream provide a fix for this next upload to unstable. Wait a bit more is of course another option, but we really should get a fix in place soon.
