Specifically, the ping6 fails, because it can't find ::1 (I don't even know how to properly setup ipv6). Maybe a notice about this could be added? It seems innocuous enough for ipv4 users. Unfortunately, the test suite isn't very verbose: I needed to run the script individually to see what was failing. We need for someone to write a hint about using ipv6 on LFS. We could then incorporate it into LFS or BLFS as appropriate. Bruce, I'm happy to do this but it depends when it's required. I would to have to fit it in with a busy work schedule. Having said that, it shouldn't take too long to complete.
It won't make it into LFS-7.8, but if the hint is available by the end of the year, it will make it into version 7.9.
