Package: iproute
Version: 20080725-2
Severity: normal
Trying to set up routing black holes results
in an error message:
# ip route add to blackhole 2001::1/128
RTNETLINK answers: No such device
The same thing happens on etch.
This could mean that this feature is not implemented
yet for IPv6, but there appears to be some code that
deals with it in linux/net/ipv6/route.c on 2.6.26...
Most likely an issue for upstream.

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
