Package: debian-installer
Version: Debian 10.6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I needed to enter an IPv6-address in the installer. When entering
fe80::1 as a gateway the installer stops with an error that the
address isn't reachable. The address fe80::1 is indeed a valid
address for a gateway.

No, this is a link-local address so you have to also specify the
interface name, e.g. "fe80::1%eth0",
