Re: [bug-inetutils] Inetutils-1.9.1 building failure.

Hello,

First of all, thank you for the immediate response.
I am using slax in order to make my build and after searching a bit I
found out that slax does not support IPv6.
I assume that this will not affect my build, and IPv6 is going to work. Right?
