Hi,
I've reviewed these suggestions (and patches, thanks!) and unfortunately
I don't think either of them are a good idea for this package.

Debian policy says that daemons should be auto-enabled and disabling can
be done by the sysadmin. As your system configuration is highly unusual
I think it is reasonable to require you to manually disable the service
if that's what you want to do.

The config file that ships with this package is a sample only and comes
directly from upstream.
However, this is still not a good idea. IPv4-only is not relevant here.
Even for DHCPv4 MAC address IDs are expressly discouraged. See
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4361#section-6.1
Thanks for the suggestions and patches anyway.
