I ran into this a few days ago. The context is we are running a node that performs several api functions and it is going to be a swift proxy too (at a later date when usage ramps up many of these functions may move to individual machines, but for now we'd like to keep them together).

The machines are running Ubuntu Trusty, and we are installing Icehouse packages.

So currently the cinder api service runs and listens on a wide ipv6 range (::). After I install the python-swift package the cinder api refuses to start with:

The culprit appears to be the python-dnspython package that is a dep for python-swift.

Now it appears that there is some monkey patching going on in the various wsgi eventlet modules to do ipv6 - somehow python-dnspython is changing the way that works - any thoughts welcome, as it would be cool to have things working again!

Regards

Mark
