Please consider unblocking prayer/1.3.3-dfsg1-3. It merely adds a patch 
setting the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option.

   * ipv6_v6only.patch (new): Set the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on
     AF_INET6 sockets; since Prayer by default enumerates available address
     families and calls bind() once for each, conflicts will occur
     otherwise.
