Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vino

Bug: vino-preferences does not report public IPv6 addresses, only IPv4
addresses.

On: Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Alpha 6

vino-preferences is now reporting: "Your desktop is only reachable over
the local network. Others can access your computer using the address
192.168.2.150."

As vinage / vnc does now, as of Jaunty Alpha 6, correctly handle
connections over Ipv6 (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vinagre/+bug/290394), vino-
preferences should now also report (public) IPv6 addresses. Example of
correct and expected behaviour:

"Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your 
computer using the address 192.168.2.150.
Your desktop is reachable from Internet using Ipv6. Others can access your 
computer using the address 2001:838:1111::2222" 

I think in vino-preferences.c the call dbus_g_proxy_call is taking care
of finding out the IP addresses. I couldn't find out how to make that
call dbus_g_proxy_call report back IPv6 addresses.
