AAAA for packages.openmediavault.org?

  • I installed OMV in my IPv6-only network today. I want to install the ZFS plugin, so I reloaded the plugin list. It didn't complete, so I created a user and ran  sudo apt update .

    It told me packages.openmediavault.org couldn't be resolved. I then ran dig (on my laptop, connected to the same network) to check if it was resolvable. Here's the output:



    I also checked against Google's DNS servers. Both suggest that no AAAA record is configured for the OMV-specific package server, and therefore it is unreachable through IPv6. Is this intentional? Is IPv6 supported for downloading packages?

    Is this intentional? Is IPv6 supported for downloading packages?

    While there are no ipv6 records for openmediavault.org or omv-extras.org, both have packages hosted by github which should have ipv6 records. Since packages.openmediavault.org is hosting the same packages as openmediavault.github.io/packages/, you don't need to worry about packages.openmediavault.org resolving.
