So how much work would it be to be able to build a Linux kernel with IPv6 enabled but IPv4 disabled in the kconfig

@famfo do the CONFIG_IPV6 options depend on the CONFIG_IP options?

@0x6e6174 @famfo iirc they do

@0x6e6174 @famfo good luck compile fixing that :3

@adrianyyy @0x6e6174 I'm gonna spend half an hour on that problem now to see how much IP is in IPv6

@famfo @adrianyyy @0x6e6174 please keep me updated i’m tempted to help

@domi @adrianyyy @famfo it seems to have just successfully rebuilt its kernel with the options it would expect control ipv4 support disabled. time to reboot.

@domi @adrianyyy @famfo nope, missed something somewhere. it should really use the ncurses config menu instead of editing .config, but its terminal colors are broken and that is a whole other thing

@0x6e6174 @adrianyyy @famfo tip: there’s make menuconfig and make nconfig; one of them is good, one of them has broken ansi (for me)

@domi @adrianyyy @0x6e6174 one of them is ugly and the other one works :p

(Yessss kconfig fight /j)

@famfo @adrianyyy @0x6e6174 preach, you’re 100% right
Show threadnatalie[ee]Jul 11
@domi @adrianyyy @famfo ok, this might just be impossible with linux. iirc bsds can be built with no ipv4 support, but everything it's seen indicates linux can't be

@0x6e6174 @adrianyyy @famfo now we have to hack it until it becomes possible ;)
