Hi Moez,

please could you explain the above statement and back it by specific
data for the tickets below?

> Bug 1231946 - unbound-anchor ignores net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
> in /etc/sysctl.conf

It seems to suggest there was a regression due to an update
related to IPv6 but:

1) The ticket doesn't suggest a regression.
2) The ticket doesn't talk about any specific update.
3) I am not aware of any recent unbound update motivated by IPv6.

If you still think it is the case, please address the above points
in the bugzilla ticket.

This looks very similar in nature.

Thanks! It looks like we need to test a lot of stuff with IPv6 disabled in
the kernel.

Cheers,

Pavel
