Comment:

 Hi dkg,

 This is a duplicate of #17835 and #17217. (There are a lot of tickets
 about IPv6 support in Tor.)

 You can see the relevant section of the IPv6 roadmap here:

 
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/roadmaps/Tor/IPv6Features#ClientConnectiontoEntryNodes

 The next task I am working on is #20916, because consensus changes take a
 while to deploy to all the authorities. I suspect we might also need to
 improve IPv6 support on relays before we can make clients use IPv6 by
 default, as only 20% of relays have IPv6 ORPorts.

 #17281 suggests that an IPv6-only client should be able to bootstrap by
 setting some flags in torrc.  I've done:

 {{{
 ClientUseIPv4 0
 ClientUseIPv6 1
 }}}

 But, most clients are not *always* IPv4-only or IPv6-only.  In particular,
 i tend to move my laptop between networks that have different properties
 (i'm writing this from a v6-only network).

 I shouldn't have to fiddle with my torrc to make tor work.  it should be
 able to auto-detect this situation and do the right thing automatically.
