I have this problem too. I believe the problem is in libcurl 7.19.7-8.fc13. If I downgrade to curl/libcurl 7.19.6-10.fc12 the problem goes away. If I run from a command line: $ curl 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=rawhide&arch=i386' I now get: curl: (7) Failed to connect to 2610:28:200:1::fed0:2: Network is unreachable despite the fact that IPv6 is disabled. The ifcfg script includes IPV6INIT=no. $ ifconfig eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:29:38:C9:7E inet addr:10.117.25.148 Bcast:10.117.25.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20c:29ff:fe38:c97e/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1184 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1487 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:541164 (528.4 KiB) TX bytes:137185 (133.9 KiB) Interrupt:19 Base address:0x10a4 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:40 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:40 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:2000 (1.9 KiB) TX bytes:2000 (1.9 KiB) My understanding is that Scope:Link means that is it can not be used for internet access. All other networking appears normal and works okay. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
