It looks like the Flatcar server that we try to reach for version information does not have an associated AAAA (IPv6) record, so an IPv6-only server is unable to contact it. You should raise this with the Flatcar team.

Thank you for the project, it made hacking on flatcar a lot easier for me. I modified the config in the following way:
After this when I try to build the snapshot then I run into errors because
curl
andwget
to something or some URL is not working out. I tried the same by creating a VM with ipv6 address only as well.The reason for failure starts from the
curl
invocation in the script. Upto the point where we installgawk
it works good. Similar is happening when I start an instance with only ipv6 address. I'm able to install packages butcurl
orwget
to a GitHub release asset fails.
