Description Marcus Wolschon 2006-12-20 22:33:42 UTC
Version:           1.0.1 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.19-rc6-marcus

Problem:
Ipv6-only irc-servers are not resolved and can only be accessed by
entering the ip(v6)-address manually.
A lookup for AAAA and A -records should be done and either:
(correct) if we have a default ipv6-route prefer an AAAA to an A -record.
(simple) if no A-record is found at all, try an AAAA-record.

test-case: ipv6.furnet.org

Cosmetic:
Also ipv6-adresses in URL-syntax (enclosed in []) are
tried to resolve as names and all ipv6-addresses are displayed
without []. The absense of [] causes unreadable
names like 2001:1a50:a::2:6697 for [2001:1a50:a::2] port 6697.
Comment 1 Marcus Wolschon 2006-12-21 13:31:14 UTC
The Problem could be with KStreamSockets use of KResolver.
Comment 2 Eike Hein 2009-05-13 00:57:46 UTC
If you're in a position to try out the pre-release KDE 4 port (see Konversation website), could you please check if it works for you there?

SVN commit 1023172 by hein:

* Fix a regression vs. the KDE 3 version that caused a failure to
  correctly parse shortened IPv6 addresses except when using RFC-
  2732-style bracket notation and explicitly stating a port to
  connect to.
BUG:198588
* Made the display of server address and port number in various
  connection-related chat view messages more consistent and IPv6-
  friendly (with the '<ip>:<port>' forward previously used, it
  could be hard to tell where the IP ended and the port began --
  now it's '<ip> (port <port>)').

Is this still an issue  for you with current versions of Konversation?
