I'm not sure if there may be other issues here too, but did you update-grub before rebooting?
If not, does /etc/hosts currently contain
localhost ::1
?
If so, it seems ipv6 is still disabled while localhost is associated with an ipv6 address, which may have some bearing according to these [not entirely pertinent] sources:

Hope that helps.
