Re: [Bug-wget] [PATCH] [wget-bug #32357], IPv6 a ddresses not formatted..

[Micah Cowan]

I believe hh's suggestion is to have the format reflect the way it would look 
in a URL; so [ and ] around ipv6, and nothing around ipv4 (since ipv4 format 
isn't ambiguous in the way ipv6 is).

Currently we are not checking family type of the address before printing
the message.

Do we have to print the message as [3ffe:b80:17e2::1]:80 for ipv6 and
|10.0.0.1|:80 for ipv4?

Please confirm so I will resubmit patch.

Thanks
Sasi


Note: I didn't get the reply to my mail, to keep track the discussion I
had copied the mail content from the mailing list.

Shouldn't IPv6 addresses be displayed like this instead:
[3ffe:b80:17e2::1]:80

/hh
