** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ Users of RabbitMQ in IPv6 environments are unable to stop/start/restart
rabbitmq.
+
+ [Test Case]
+ On and IPv6 only server:
+ sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server
+ ...
+ * Starting message broker rabbitmq-server
+ * FAILED - check /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_\{log, _err\}
+ ...fail!
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ The fix for this issue is in erlang itself; enabling IPv6 support in epmd is
a compile time option so there is scope for regression. Testing should ensure
that existing IPv4 deployments of erlang tools do not regress with this change
(validated RMQ already against PPA packages).
+
+ [Original Bug Report]
Guys,
I'm trying to install rabbitmq-server on Ubuntu 14.04 on a IPv6-Only
network and it fails, look:

The connectivity (resolved via /etc/hosts):

However, if I comment out the "nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8844" entries
out from /etc/resolv.conf, then, rabbitmq-server starts! Very weird...
Nothing on /etc/resolv.conf now...:
