Created attachment 321274 [details] /tmp/emerge--info I know I am not uptodate, but I'd be surprised the update fixes this. I will eventually close this bug withint 24h if I am wrong. dhp@uranus ~ $ wget "http://[2a01:e35:8ba8:e140:201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b]" -O /dev/null && echo OK --2012-08-14 06:10:56-- http://[2a01:e35:8ba8:e140:201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b]/ Connecting to 2a01:e35:8ba8:e140:201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b:80... connected.

As expected, update does not help. [ebuild R ] net-misc/wget-1.13.4-r1 USE="gnutls idn ipv6 nls ssl -debug -ntlm -static" 0 kB

Looks like the inverse of bug #431310.
Hardly. Wget is find with public addresses, bugs only with LL. Curl does not like at all the traditionnal syntax that works with wget, lynx, and FF ...
we don't care about old versions, so always test the latest before reporting 1.14 is in stable now, so that might be worth testing
1.14 is ~, I am using stable. If I had to update to ~ every single package in which I find a bug before reporting it, I would gain a ~ machine. I choosed Stable, and do not want to use ~ anymore. Not my fault if I find bugs in stable packages. Still, just for your eyes: [ebuild R ~] net-misc/wget-1.14 USE="gnutls idn ipv6 nls ssl -debug -ntlm -static" 0 kB dhp@uranus /tmp $ wget 'http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b%eth0]/' http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b%eth0]/: Invalid IPv6 numeric address. dhp@uranus /tmp $ wget 'http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b%256]/' http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b%256]/: Invalid IPv6 numeric address. dhp@uranus /tmp $ wget 'http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b]/' --2012-08-16 21:17:02-- http://[fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b]/ Connecting to [fe80::201:3ff:fe8c:3d2b]:80... failed: Invalid argument. dhp@uranus /tmp $ Of course, the last error is expected. %eth0 is the BSD syntax, expected to work on Linux, works with ping, nmap and Firefox. Second syntax is the one used by Windows, and some strange tools. Second syntax works partially with curl.
(In reply to comment #5) i didn't tell you to update every package to unstable, or even that you had to in order to report a bug. i told you to not report bugs against packages that are past stable which you did originally. then i asked you to test 1.14 to see if it was already a fixed issue.
