 Hi,

 I just switched to an IPv6 only network. While startup, my proxy can't be
 located, as ping is called to check reachabillity of the server.

 At least on Linux-Systems ping6 would be the right way, as the normal ping
 can't deal with the new addresses.

 At least 0.27.1 has this problem, but I think the code didn't change since
 then.

 A short try with replacing ping by ping6 in
 libs/libmythbase/mythmiscutil.cpp and everything is working.
