Description Tommy Pettersson 2009-12-12 14:01:50 UTC

I've applied the patch in the debian bug report locally, and openntpd has run smooth ever since.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Emerge openntpd on a system without ipv6, start it and wait a week or two. Maybe the DNS used for lookups must be of a sort that returns ipv6 answers too, I don't know.
Actual Results:  
openntpd prints a warning and dies

Expected Results:  
openntpd prints a warning and continues
