Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the aiccu package.
The package description is: This client configures IPv6 connectivity without having to manually configure interfaces etc. A SixXS account or an account of another supported tunnel broker and at least one tunnel are required. These can be freely requested from the SixXS website at no cost. For more information about SixXS check their homepage. . URL: http://www.sixxs.net The package was finally moved to main after discussions with upstream back in 2007. Sadly I do not use this utility anymore except on my router, which is running on OpenWRT and thus not on the Debian package. Upstream is running the SixXS service and was pretty responsive. It needs some love, though. The way it manages its configuration file is suboptimal and it needs invocation when dynamic devices like wifi are activated. There is also one pitfall with the utility: it relies on long DNS answers to populate the list of tunnel brokers for the Debconf screen. That did not work too well with some DNS servers because it requires the use of TCP. (Even when I just tried it I got "Warning: Couldn't find global Tunnel Brokers List, please check your DNS settings and read the FAQ." when invoking `aiccu brokers'.)
