ARPV6/ICMPV6 socket: Address family not supported by protocol

There apparently is another solution, and sadly it’s that you have to enable IPv6 on the host (even if you have no IPv6 anywhere on your network).

I just ran into this same nonsense, and it was only after undoing the grub kernel parameter to disable ipv6 (as well as the “belt & suspenders” sysctl setting) and rebooting that Boreas could be bothered to do a single thing.
