Package: backuppc Severity: normal The followig workaround lets v6-only hosts be backed up (only tested with rsync+ssh):
Set
$Conf{NmbLookupCmd} = '';
$Conf{NmbLookupFindHostCmd} = '';
$Conf{PingCmd} = '/bin/ping6';
for those hosts. I actually do not use ping tests, and since I am
lucky enough not to have to deal with CIFS, I set the other two
globally.
It seems like this is a gross hack, but it's necessary because
backuppc uses gethostbyname() (which does not do AAAA records) when
it should just use getaddrinfo().
