The /etc/hosts file in an installed system is generated by netcfg. The
version of netcfg in Intrepid, 1.44ubuntu4, specifically does add an
ipv6 localhost entry. Here are the entries it creates:
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
What was in your /etc/hosts, if not this?
** Changed in: netcfg (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: netbase => netcfg
Status: New => Incomplete
