Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

When I try to connect to a pure IPv6 network (i.e. no IPv4), it gets
connected, sets both a link-local and a global address, but does not
seem to realize it is done (the circling icon is still animating). After
a while it 'gives up' and brings the interface down again.

It seems that it waits for DHCP(v4) to finish, which will obviously fail,   
since there is no IPv4 on the local network. When DHCP fails, NetworkManager 
seems to assume there is no network at all and brings the interface down
again.

Release: Hardy (but i hear gutsy has the same problem, network-manager
0.6.6
