Notes for IPv6
--------------
If you are using libc5, you may need to edit the Makefile so that
libinet6 is linked in and your IPv6 include files are found in the
right place. The definitions in question are at about line 91.
right place. The definitions in question are at about line 91. You may
also find that the header files provided with inet6-apps are not exactly
what net-tools expects. This is not a bug in net-tools as such and will
not be fixed in future releases (though if anybody would like to contribute
a patch I would be happy to add a pointer to it here.) If you have the
option you might consider changing to glibc instead (see below) in which
case you can use the header files supplied with the C library.
If you use glibc, you should get the latest 2.1 snapshot. In this
case you do not need to edit the Makefile or apply any patches.
Version 2.0 of glibc has no support for IPv6.
If you use glibc, you should get the latest 2.1 release (or pre-release)
that you can find; look in sourceware.cygnus.com:/pub/glibc. 2.1 prereleases
have version numbers 2.0.x where x is greater than 90. With such a libc
installed there should be no need to edit the Makefile or patch net-tools.
You may find that you are missing files such as <netinet/ip6.h>. This is
not a bug in net-tools; you should find some newer include files.
Version 2.0 of glibc has no support for IPv6. Patches did exist at one
point but they are now seriously updated. Consider upgrading to glibc 2.1
instead.
BUGS

"ifconfig eth0 add ..." does not currently auto-load the IPv6 module.
