[Pkg-postgresql-public] Bug#685362: postgresql-common: server does not listen in ipv6 after install

[Simon Pepping]

Package: postgresql-common
Version: 134
Severity: normal
Tags: ipv6

Dear Maintainer,

After a fresh install of amd64 testing with postgresql, the server was
not listening on IPv6. This turned out to be due to

1. listen_addresses = 'localhost' in postgresql.conf
2. ::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback in etc/hosts

i.e. the servers listens on localhost, but localhost is no longer
configured to have an IPv6 address.

On a debian system postgresql should be listening in both IPv4 and
IPv6 out of the box.

Best, Simon
