omair, if you can't change your DNS, I've found that forcing AI_ADDRCONFIG as noted in #288, #289 and (importantly) #290 works nicely for me.
Also, if it causes trouble for you, you can just remove or comment out the ld.so.preload line. I've applied it on 5 computers here at work w/ no issues and immediate improvements, where DNS changes are simply not an option. I do also set: network.dns.disableIPv6;true in Firefox as well. But all the other apps on the system are now working nicely (wget, ssh etc). -- [regression] all network apps / browsers suffer from multi-second delays by default due to IPv6 DNS lookups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417757 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
