If rhel7 already has AF_INET6 in Socket I'd guess we are safe with this patch - it also means we can drop Socket6 requirement completely which is a good thing. I'll test the patch on rhel7 based system and we'll see if that works there - I don't think there is any older supported distro out there... -- Tuomo Soini <[email protected]> Foobar Linux services +358 40 5240030 Foobar Oy <https://foobar.fi/>
