Re: Bug#678519: general: after about 1 month of uptime, routing of IPv6 packets is no longer possible, and IPv4 routing becomes slow and unpredictable. Rebooting brings all functionality back, and back to speed. so far the best way for me to discover is to try a ping6, and reboot the firewall (this machine), when ping6 from the inner network fails.

reassigning bugs from general to base is pretty useless, as both pseudo-
packages bugs are "maintained" by the same persons... 

Basically the base-pseudo package is pretty useless as well, all it's 
(current) bugs should probabyl be carefully assigned to the kernel, for 
#678519 I just wasnt sure yet if its really a kernel or user configuration 
problem...

The general pseudo-package has some approriate bugs OTOH.

But mostly bugs filed against those two pseudo-packages really need to be 
assigned to a real package.


cheers,
