To be honest, I don't think it's only about IPv6-only environments. A person performing the installation may only be on IPv6 link-local, IPv6 autoconfigure, IPv4, only, whilst the machine to be installed has dual-stack / all combos. Unusual, true, but totally possible. Thus, I think, we should enumerate all IP addresses, sans loopback, and display them all. -- Regards, Dimitri.
