Followup-For: Bug #528992
User: [email protected]
Usertags: origin-ubuntu utopic ubuntu-patch
Dear Maintainer,
In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
My attempt at getting a patch I submitted upstream applied to the mtr
package.
It basically fixes LP: #752583 where IPv6 nameservers specified in
/etc/resolv.conf aren't counted and therefore mtr aborts when there
are *only* IPv6 nameservers specified.
Example /etc/resolv.conf:
| nameserver ::1
| domain local
| options timeout:3 no-check-names
Output from mtr without the fix:
| Start: Fri Aug 15 14:01:25 2014
| No nameservers defined.
A pull request has been submitted on GitHub to have this change
merged upstream[1].

* Non-maintainer upload.
* Added patch to include count of IPv6 nameservers fixing
LP:#752583.
Thanks for considering the patch.
