All major Linux distributions provide some way of package installation and updating, using mirror sites.
Some of those archive mirrors are be reachable via IPv6, and some not. But there is no clear indication as to which one is and which isn't.
Instead of maintaining a static list of IPv6 enabled archive mirrors, I've scripted together created some PHP pages scripts that parse the official archive mirror lists list of several a Linux distribution, and 'enhance' them it with IPv6 information:
