That's an option that can be changed by the user, so irrelevant to supporting IPv6 networks out of the box. I don't think there are enough IPv6-only networks to warrant shipping IPv4 as optional by default just yet, to me that's likely to cause far more pain for the time being.
Definitely something to revisit after we release Precise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761558 Title: Default to enabling IPv6 addresses, but set to optional to bring up devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/761558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
