Package: netcat-traditional
Version: 1.10-40
Severity: important
Tags: ipv6

Apparently, nc.traditional does not support IPv6:

% nc.traditional -vv ::1 22
::1: forward host lookup failed: Unknown host

As the transitional "netcat" package transitions to netcat-traditional,
this is quite inconvienent.
