(I'm not sure how to test if this is still broken; I tried installing the
network-manager and associated packages from lucid in my karmic install, and
after a reboot it exhibits the same behaviour but works fine otherwise, but
obviously that's not a very reliable test.)

This bug means that sites like google.com and youtube.com start failing for me
when I switch between wifi and wired networking, since the ipv6 packets are
being sent out the wrong interface. I can't imagine mine is the only ISP in the
world which has enabled ipv6 and Google's ipv6 DNS, either.

I'm not sure exactly where the bug is, though; Ubuntu's network-manager on new
installs seems to be set to 'Ignore' for the ipv6 method. Is my real problem
that ipv6 addresses are being autoconfigured despite that? Or is the bug that
network-manager's ipv6 settings should be defaulting to another option? Or
something else I haven't thought of?
