Martin Panter added the comment: Currently pydoc only binds to IPv4 localhost, not the “any-address” 0.0.0.0. See Issue 22421 and Issue 672656.
Apart from satisfying Hans’s expectation, what is the benefit of running pydoc on IPv6? I guess it would be possible to bind two sockets, one to IPv4 localhost (127.1 or ::ffff:127.0.0.1), and the other IPv6 localhost (::1). But why bother? ---------- status: open -> pending _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3213> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
