Choosing between IPv4 and IPv6 is not like choosing PostgreSQL 8 or 9. It's like choosing MySQL or PostgreSQL. Different software, that require different configuration before any app can use them. I was making the analogy that a PostgreSQL app may install ok from RPM but require the sysadmin to configure the database (creating users, schema, importing initial data). So requiring a sysadmin to setup IPv6 (like enabling it for a network card) would be similar. Disabling IPv6 by default would not make it harder IMHO to install binaries that require IPv6. >> Defaults should suit most users.
