Package: netbase
Version: 5.0
Severity: normal
netbase's postinst adds the following lines to /etc/hosts:
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
I already dropped these from netcfg because they don't make sense.

netcfg.h: drop ip6-mcastprefix
There is no value in adding ip6-mcastprefix resolving to ff00::0 to
/etc/hosts. It might have been meant as a way to lookup the prefix
quickly, but we also do not include a prefix table for legacy IP. And it
would have been for human, not program consumption anyway.

netcfg.h: drop ip6-localnet
fe00::/9 is reserved. fe80::/10 is link-local unicast and does not have
anything to do with fe00::/9. Hence drop this obsolete entry.

I think this should be done in netbase as well.
