I have the same problem. After trying very hard to disable ipv6
completely (in order to get rid of EXTREME LONG download times for
chromium git and having an ISP that does not support ipv6), my interface
*STILL* has an inet6 addr and the resolver STILL does AAAA look ups :(.
This is insane-- why is there is no way to disable ipv6?!
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr c8:60:00:c3:37:1c
inet addr:192.168.0.14 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::92f9:ecc1:82d2:1d3/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

Dowloading 13.8 GB of repositories (many of them) took me two days;
should be possible in an hour.
