Hello @dancremar

The aegis script uses binaries included in the firmware (iptables, iprange, ipset, ip, and so on) Although aegis does not use any of these binaries for IPv6, it is likely that at least one of them depends on libiptext6.so.

The library is included by default in the firmware, so it is not really an issue…

root@R7800:~$ find / -name *libiptext6*
/rom/usr/lib/libiptext6.so
/usr/lib/libiptext6.so

Anyway, this is not an aegis issue. If you want to not have any IPv6 library, you would need to recompile the whole firmware without IPv6 support.
