compiled with IPv6 support, s6-networking is IPv6-ready.

+ The <tt>s6-</tt> prefix is slightly misleading, and probably a naming
+mistake. This package is not, stricto sensu, a part of the
+<em>s6 ecosystem</em>, and it is nowhere near a requirement for a
+<a href="//skarnet.org/software/s6/">s6</a>-based installation.
+However, it provides useful networking utilities often used with s6,
+so keeping the prefix makes some kind of sense; you can see s6-networking,
+as well as its dependency <a href="//skarnet.org/software/s6-dns/">s6-dns</a>,
+as extensions to the s6 ecosystem.
