Well, this has to be fixed or turned off completely. When I try to emerge and it tries to download new packages, it is trying to use IPv6 addresses which fail. It spits out this: >>> Downloading 'https://mirrors.evowise.com/gentoo/distfiles/38/kjobwidgets-5.66.0.tar.xz' --2020-01-13 04:49:25-- https://mirrors.evowise.com/gentoo/distfiles/38/kjobwidgets-5.66.0.tar.xz Resolving mirrors.evowise.com... 2606:4700:1::6813:894b, 2606:4700:1::6813:8b4b, 2606:4700:1::6813:8a4b, ...
