Package: ipcalc Version: 0.41-4 Severity: normal Tags: ipv6 Dear Maintainer, The ipcalc tool included in Debian works fine for IPv4 addresses but has no support whatsoever for IPv6 addresses. The output of: $ ipcalc ::1 INVALID ADDRESS: ::1
Address: 192.168.1.1 11000000.10101000.00000001. 00000001 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 = 24 11111111.11111111.11111111. 00000000 Wildcard: 0.0.0.255 00000000.00000000.00000000. 11111111 => Network: 192.168.1.0/24 11000000.10101000.00000001. 00000000 HostMin: 192.168.1.1 11000000.10101000.00000001. 00000001 HostMax: 192.168.1.254 11000000.10101000.00000001. 11111110 Broadcast: 192.168.1.255 11000000.10101000.00000001. 11111111 Hosts/Net: 254 Which doesn't correspond to reality. This was also the case with Fedora's ipcalc tool [0] and we updated it to [1] which does support IPv6 and has output which resembles Debian's ipcalc.
