Public bug reported: == Comment: #0 - IRINA YASHINA - 2016-02-18 07:31:18 == I tried to install Ubuntu16.04 with preseed file. When IPv6 address was used in preseed/url:
preseed/url=http://[fd00:9:152:48:1822:ffff:162:199]/ubuntu/ira/s83lp25.preseed the error message with wrong url appeared in installer (error scrinshot), the preseed file couldn't be used. In the syslog we can see the following messages with incorrectly changed url: Feb 18 07:33:31 main-menu[501]: DEBUG: resolver (libc6-udeb): package doesn't exist (ignored) Feb 18 07:33:31 main-menu[501]: INFO: Menu item 'network-preseed' selected Feb 18 07:34:48 main-menu[501]: (process:517): http://[fd00.boeblingen.de.ibm.com:9:152:48:1822:ffff:162:199]/ubuntu/ira/s83lp25.preseed: Invalid IPv6 numeric address.
