Hello,

Jeffrey B. Green a écrit :

I'm seeing if there is an alternate answer here before filing a
bug. (I believe) All of the servers here that have IPv6 configured
hang while attempting an update on security.debian.org. If I turn
off IPv6 by deconfiguring the IPv6 address, then the update goes
through fine.

It could be an MTU/MSS issue. See the recent discussion in the
debian-ipv6 list with subject "schein.debian.org" [2001:4f8:8:36::6].


Many thanks. Changing the MTU to 1480 as suggested worked. Indeed as
was mentioned my connection to the IPv6 network is via a tunnel and I'm
assuming as a poster commented that someone on the path is not handling
the packaging correctly.
