[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#611480: klibido: IPv6 support rudimentary, does not support failover for clusters

[Martin Kotzan]

Package: klibido
Version: 0.2.5-7+b1
Severity: important
Tags: patch ipv6

With the current connection scheme, only a connection to the first IP address 
of any address family is tried; a connection over IPv6 is only attempted if 
there is no IPv4 address.

This means that klibido breaks if the "first" server in a cluster is down
or refusing connections.
And of course IPv6-only systems break if the server is dual-stack.

The attached patch is a revision of my previous patch, it uses getaddrinfo 
to determine the addresses to connect to, connect (in myConnect()) is called 
in a loop. I'm also attaching an incremental patch.

Thank you!

Martin
