Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:4.6p1-4+b1
Severity: wishlist

There's apparently no need to request that ssh connect to an IPv6
link-local address.  Which is somewhat painful when trying to fix an
IPv6-only router that has stopped routing.

AFAIK, allowing connection to a link-local addresses is trivial.  The
only thing needed is to allow specification of an interface on the
command line, the index of which will go into the sin6_scope_id member
at connect time.

Thanks,
