exactly *that* is my point

it is ridiculous that i bave a clearly static ipv4 config
using network.service as well as "ipv6disable=1" as kernel
param and on a F19 machine with 3.10.0-1.fc20.x86_64 eth0
comes up with "inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fe30:82b9"

this is not a matter of ipv6 security / yes / no / don't know
it is a matter of if ipv6 would make sense for the network
and would enable and *properly* configure it but this is
not the case because the gateway is for sure not ipv6 capable

i do not need to see any ip-address (ipv4 or ipv6) on a
statically interface which was not explicitly configured
