The configure script uses a runtime check to determine if IPv6 is working. If IPv6 is disabled system-wide via a kernel option on linux, the resulting python interpreter is compiled as if "--disable-ipv6" had been passed to the configure script. This causes multiple issues: - http://bugs.python.org/issue7735 - http://bugs.python.org/issue16208 Both of the above issues have been closed as wontfix, and I have been told to not use --disable-ipv6 and instead disable IPv6 system wide via a boot option. This is what I did, and now I have the same issue because the configure script has this runtime check... |

Indeed, I think the runtime check is misguided. If the system provides the required APIs for AF_INET6, then IPv6 support should be enabled regardless of whether the current system config allows to create an IPv6 socket or not. Would you want to provide a patch for this? It's probably simple. |

Here's a patch, tested with ipv6.disable=1. |
