Description Ashish Shukla 2008-04-28 13:10:02 UTC 
Whenever I execute getaddrinfo() function from libc with a 'hostname.local'
address as an argument and AF_INET6 as ai.ai_family, I always get an IPv4
address, even when 'avahi-resolve-host-name -6 hostname.local' returns
an IPv6 address.

Fix: Refer to the attached patch.txt, which is a patch for dns/nss_mdns port, and will fix the issue.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: I've written a test program getaddrinfo.c[1] which does a
getaddrinfo() function call and prints the result on the terminal.

Hi,

Updated diff for updating nss_mdns to v0.10. This diff needs to be
applied on /usr/ports/dns/nss_mdns .

Please ignore any earlier diffs.

Thanks
