On a more serious note, I can on my Ubuntu machine just "apt-get install wide-dhcpv6-client" and I get dhcpv6, it'll properly put stuff in resolv.conf for dns-over-ipv6 transport, even though the connection manager knows nothing about it, at least dual stack works properly.

This is finally getting fixed now. NetworkManager 0.8.3, to be shipped in the upcoming Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty) seems to do the right thing, including using the OtherConfig-Flag in RA to trigger a stateless DHCPv6 request. Haven't tested stateful yet. Bernhard
