I've been noticing the same problem: hangs on IPv6 enabled hosts when doing aptitude updates...The solution is to set the MTU to 1280
One way to do that is to edit /etc/network/interfaces and add to the stanza for the interface that will carry your ipv6 traffic:
mtu 1280This only works if the interface is configured "static". I don't know how to do it if you are using dhcp.
Anybody else know? Rick
