And it's been beyond proven that people give more of a crap about disable_ipv6 than the thing you keep claiming is a big deal. NOBODY other than you even noticed the issue or made a report about it. Yet we have people actively complaining about disable_ipv6 being broken. So you lose on two counts. You can't fix things by breaking other stuff, and your obscure stuff matters less than things people actually notice being broken. _______________________________________________ stable mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/stable
