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