New submission from Douglas Mayle: The following code calls getadddrinfo and returns invalid addresses (IPv6 addresses) when Python has been compiled with IPv6 support and the system kernel does not support IPv6.
import socket for res in socket.getaddrinfo("localhost", "80", 0, socket.SOCK_STREAM): print "%r" % (res,) (2, 1, 6, '', ('127.0.0.1', 80)) (10, 1, 6, '', ('::1', 80, 0, 0)) ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 61799 nosy: douglas severity: normal status: open title: IPv6 compiled getaddrinfo returns IPv6 address even if the system does not support IPv6 type: behavior versions: Python 2.4 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1958> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
