Subject: [ldns-users] link-local addresses in /etc/resolv.conf

Following a post on the ipv6-ops list
http://lists.cluenet.de/pipermail/ipv6-ops/2014-July/010032.html

I had a look at the /etc/resolv.conf parser in ldns and found that it has
the same bug: it ignores any scope on an IPv6 address, which means it will
not be able to initialize the interface index correctly, so will fail to
send link-local queries out of the right interface.

Tony.

Tony,

Acknowledged.  I'll tend to it shortly.

Thanks for reporting,
