Public bug reported:

I like to known what's the way to disable DNS AAAA queries.
Already have disabled all resources ipv6.

1. Changes in grub:
vim /etc/default/grub
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1"
update-grub

2. I'm using 12.04 LTS version (builtin ipv6 support)
grep -i ipv6 /boot/config-3.2.0-24-generic 
    CONFIG_IPV6=y
    CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY=y
    ...

Before this i try with sysctl, but tcp6 sockets still alive.
After grub changes this solve the question - i can disable ipv6 address and 
networks sockets too.

But, internal lookups stay wrong.
Some sites like www.caixa.gov.br are slow.

When i sniff my connection i can see many DNS AAAA records and server fail
Running "lynx www.caixa.gov.br"

I do bind changes too
vim /etc/default/bind9
    RESOLVCONF=no
    OPTIONS="-4 -u bind"

vim /etc/bind/named.conf.options
        forward only;
        forwarders {
                208.67.222.222;
                8.8.8.8;
        };


This dont solve AAAA requests.
I like to known a way to prefer ipv4 queries (A) or disable ipv6 queries.

When i'm using squid proxy the same problem occur.
To solve this i need compile squid with --disable-ipv6. 
This works to Squid proxy, but i think that the best way is disable all DNS 
AAAA queries.

This occur with lynx, wget and others.
