           Summary: Ipv6-only hosts are not resolved in Konversation
           Product: konversation
           Version: 1.0.1
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konversation-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: Suran gmx net


Version:           1.0.1 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.19-rc6-marcus

Problem:
Ipv6-only irc-servers are not resolved and can only be accessed by
entering the ip(v6)-address manually.
A lookup for AAAA and A -records should be done and either:
(correct) if we have a default ipv6-route prefer an AAAA to an A -record.
(simple) if no A-record is found at all, try an AAAA-record.

test-case: ipv6.furnet.org

Cosmetic:
Also ipv6-adresses in URL-syntax (enclosed in []) are
tried to resolve as names and all ipv6-addresses are displayed
without []. The absense of [] causes unreadable
names like 2001:1a50:a::2:6697 for [2001:1a50:a::2] port 6697.
