Subject: preseed/url: correctly handle IPv6 addresses

Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:05:42 +0100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: preseed
Version: 1.70
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i patch

Dear maintainer,

trying to fetch a preseed URL using an IPv6 address fails.  For example,
consider the preseed/url setting:
	http://[fd00:9:152:48:1822:ffff:162:199]/dir/preseed.cfg
which becomes
        http://[fd00.example.org:9:152:48:1822:ffff:162:199]/dir/preseed.cfg

The problem is that "fd00" is treated as hostname without domain and, thus,
the domain name is appended resulting in "fd00.example.org".  Of course,
this is no longer a valid IPv6 address.

To solve this problem, I added a patch that enhances the auto-install.sh
to detect IPv6 addresses.  I also added few more unit test cases to cover
different URLs with IPv6 addresses with user, password, and port variations:

	[...]
	ok 11 - ftp with user/password, IPv4, and domain
	ok 12 - ftp with user/password, IPv4, and domain and port
	ok 13 - http with short IPv6 and domain
	ok 14 - http with simple IPv6 and domain
	ok 15 - http with IPv6 and domain
	ok 16 - http with IPv6, port, and domain
	ok 17 - http with user/password, IPv6 and domain
	ok 18 - http with user/password, IPv6, port, and domain

Thanks and kind regards,
  Hendrik
