Package: tftpd-hpa
Version: 5.0-16
Severity: normal

I just got hit by the same bug:

Selecting previously deselected package tftpd-hpa.
(Reading database ... 160286 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking tftpd-hpa (from .../tftpd-hpa_5.0-16_amd64.deb) ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Setting up tftpd-hpa (5.0-16) ...
Starting HPA's tftpd: in.tftpdinvoke-rc.d: initscript tftpd-hpa, action "start" 
failed.
dpkg: error processing tftpd-hpa (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 71
Errors were encountered while processing:
 tftpd-hpa
E: Sub-process /usr/lib/apt-ma-emu/dpkg returned an error code (1)


This is seriously anoying behaviour. The package must not fail to
install without IPv6. You should at least check in postinst if IPv6
support is available and give a meaningfull error message. You could
also add -4 if IPv6 support is missing.
