Comment (by wagnerrp):

 #10909 has a bunch of info on trying to have MythTV listen on
 "fe80::21f:1fff:fe23:a434/64", with the result that half of MythTV
 correctly identifies it as an invalid IP address and reverts to IPv4
 operation, while the other half blindly tries (and fails) to resolve the
 string through the system's DNS configuration.  That's an invalid bug, and
 at most merits a sanity check on the inputs in mythtv-setup.  Being unable
 to use "fe80::21f:1fff:fe23:a434" either is a separate issue.
