I switched ISPs a couple months back and have been struggling with |
| 2 |
networking issues (not LAN, just WAN.) |

I have discovered that something is broken with my ISP's ipv6 support, |
| 5 |
every time I go to a website there's a 10-second delay. When syncing |
| 6 |
portage today I saw what the delay is: apparently it tries ipv6 twice, |
| 7 |
fails, then resorts to ipv4 which works fine. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Most of my systems now have ipv6 support removed, and viola! no more |
| 10 |
delays. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Except for the three systems I have that run systemd. I went in the |
| 13 |
kernel config to disable ipv6, and it won't let me - looking at the |
| 14 |
dependency list, it's systemd blocking this. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
So *why* on earth is it a dependency when (from what I've been reading |
| 17 |
after discovering this) many ISPs don't seem to support it properly yet? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
And is there a way to build systemd without ipv6? Or am I going to have |
| 20 |
to revert these three systems back to openrc? |
