Description:

ppp package does not support ipv6.

I've added a updated PKGBUILD to add INET6 support to pppd. Current archlinux packages does not do that, the line is commented out.
However, it's not working for me, but I think the problem is elswhere.
Does somebody manage to have native ipv6 with pppd and Archlinux ?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

- have an ipv6 compatible ISP, which gives you an ipv6 when establishing a connexion with it.
This task depends upon

The problem has been fixed in adding a line

export CFLAGS=-D_GNU_SOURCE

This problem seems related with recent bind problems, see #11166.

ppp 2.4.4-8 from testing should fix this.
