[pve-devel] [PATCH 1/2] ipv6 support for Storage::resolv_server

[Wolfgang Bumiller]

While in posix gethostbyname(3) does support ipv6, perl's gethostbyname
usually returns wrong results for ipv6 hosts, or no results for ipv6
addresses. Since we provide a getaddrinfo helper already, we now use
that instead.
