Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.33
Severity: normal

IPv6 addresses and routes configured on a wired Ethernet interface by SLAAC are
not removed when the network cable is disconnected. On a multi-homed host this
may result in a loss of network connectivity.  This is on a EeePC 901 and
Network Manager detects the removal of the cable.


-- System Information:
Debian Release: squeeze/sid
Architecture: i386 (i686)

Kernel: Linux 2.6.33-honey4 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT)
Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)

It is not the kernel's job to change routing when an interface goes
down.

Once a job is fouled up, anything done to improve it makes it worse.
