dns lookup doesn't fall back to IPv4

my network is (sometimes) linked to the internet via 6to4, but the local network is always dual-stack. so from time to time IPv6 works over the LAN boundary, sometimes not.

till 2.0.1.7 this wasn't a problem, but since the update the dns resolution fails. i guess its stuck at trying via IPv6, which doesn't provide a path to the internet right now.

as soon as i deactivate WLAN and am only on the mobile network connection, the dns client (and therefore mail, browser, store, ...) come to live again.

If the network is "uplinked" via v6, the router indicates this with the "default router" flag set in the router advertisements. So there shouldn't be a default route available for sailfish to use otherwise.

facts

  • routes are set up correct (ping a public IP works)
  • resolv.conf is missing server entries

full story

seems that i might have bin mislead by my setup. now it looks like networkmanager is ignoring the DNS provided by DHCP{4,6} at all. just the specific conditions remain unclear.
