I think patch is what you need (maybe the last chunk only): http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager- list/2011-August/msg00063.html > I also noted that there is such a check in nm-applet which would write > "Ignore" and then include the assigned IPv6 addresses if the above is > fixed, so now we have two separate tasks for network-manager and > network-manager-applet.

I'll do my best, but I can't promise you I find the time before next week, I'm going away from Friday, and I've got a really busy schedule today and tomorrow.
