I wrote a script to activate 6to4 (protocol 41 tunnel to anycast address) and route/advertise a subnet. I've just wrapped it inside a debian package, the idea being that people could go apt-get install auto6to4 and, assuming they have a stable first-class IPv4 address, immediately sans configuration get a stable IPv6 address. And if they instead go apt-get install auto6to4 radvd then they'd have a subnet for all local hosts that accept advertisements. I tried to make it robust, so as to not mess up anything on a host that doesn't have a first-class IPv4 address, and to do the right thing on hosts with multiple interfaces, e.g., a host serving as a NAT router. I've uploaded the package to experimental. Before uploading the package to Debian proper, I was hoping people might have a look at it.
