Description Jeffrey Forman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-07-31 10:23:52 UTC
Perusing the ipv6 doc on g.o/doc/en/ipv6.xml, it only mentions in passing "if 
ipv6 wasnt in your use flags before..." under 3.ipv6 support in applications.

the editing of the USE flag should be the first thing user does, rather than 
having to remeber to type it in at the command line each time. something to the 
effect after code listing 1.1:
"After emerging new kernel source, add ipv6 to your USE flags in /etc/make.conf 
therefore all subsequent emerging of packages have ipv6 support compiled in." 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Small updates to doc

Attached is a small patch that does two things:

1) Add a comment before chapter 2 to mention adding "ipv6" to your USE
variables.
2) Fix to the sample dhcp6s.conf file. This *definitely* should be applied, as
this included config won't work for most people.


thanks all!
