Package: netbase
Version: 5.3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

first of all, I do apologise if I got the wrong package, please move
as appropriate. This is so basic I didn't know where to start.

On this newly installed stretch system localhost resolves to '::1' by
default, making local servers that only listen on IPv4 inaccessible
(by name). If this is the intended behaviour -- what would be a clean
way to revert to the old one? (For now I've just edited /etc/hosts.)

Regards,
Christian
