Description Wolfgang Rupprecht 2006-04-08 17:56:30 UTC
Description of problem:
system-config-network deletes ipv6 entries from /etc/hosts

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum updated fc5 current as of this bug report.

How reproducible:
100% reproducible

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create an /etc/hosts file that contains ~150 lines with v6 and v4
addresses alternating as such:

1234:5678:9abc:def0::5	foo5.example.org  foo5 foo5-v6
10.0.0.5		foo5.example.org  foo5 foo5-v4

2. start system-config-netork
3. do some noop and hit "save" in the file menu
4. look at /etc/hosts and notice the v6 addresses are now missing.
  
Actual results:

/etc/hosts has had the v6 addresses edited out.

Expected results:

No change to /etc/hosts
