Package: java-common Version: 0.34 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Since my last upgrade of java, all java applications that use networking stopped working. After some research I found that this is because of a change that makes java start to use ipv6 instead of ipv4. I have to following interfaces (ifconfig): br0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1a:92:3a:4a:c1 inet addr:192.168.2.4 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21a:92ff:fe3a:4ac1/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2656682 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1257786 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1473927102 (1.3 GiB) TX bytes:406009708 (387.2 MiB) eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1a:92:3a:4a:c1 inet6 addr: fe80::21a:92ff:fe3a:4ac1/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2656682 errors:0 dropped:1798 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1257827 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1474631718 (1.3 GiB) TX bytes:406015654 (387.2 MiB) Interrupt:17 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:350463 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:350463 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:42943362 (40.9 MiB) TX bytes:42943362 (40.9 MiB) And the following routing info (route): Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface localnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 br0 default ansset.localdom 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 br0 Starting 'java' with -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true solves the problem for that particular application, but not entirely because some applications invoke java again themselves, ie a restart or subprocess. It's not nice to have to edit scripts of packages to get them to work again (scripts are not configuration files). Basically, all java networking got broken by this change (unless you have and use ipv6 interfaces). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash java-common depends on no packages. java-common recommends no packages.

I am closing this as "not a bug" (in java-common at least). As pointed out, this is a bug in either netbase or individual JVMs. To the best of my knowledge openjdk-6 is now unaffected by it and sun-java6 is still affected. I do not know how gcj is doing in this regard. ~NielsAttachment: signature.asc
