Thanks for reporting this bug. Did you have an idea for how to best solve this?
Can this be seen as a bug in ifupdown instead? Since you say that if the sysctl is refused, it all works anyway, it sounds like it should not be failing on account of not being able to set the sysctl? If a change in libvirt is required, then we need to do this in concert with the upstream mailing list, as it seems to require an api change. ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964882 Title: Static IPv6 configuration fails in lxc guests because of readonly /proc/sys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/964882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
