Bug Description
Launchpad is not reachable over IPv6 only connections. This has the side effect of making Ubuntu systems on IPv6 only connections unable to report bugs with apport.
To reproduce the Ubuntu specific problem, run 'ubuntu-bug update-manager' on a machine with an IPv6 only connection. (You can do this if you have IPv6 by opening network manager, selecting your Internet connection, going to the *IPv4* tab, and selecting disable on the menu, Applying changes, and reconnecting.)
Apport will fail with the error
"Cannot connect to crash database, please check your Internet connection.
<urlopen error [Errno 101] Network is unreachable>"
.

This is a fair question but not a code bug with launchpad - launchpad runs behind stock apache servers in the Canonical datacentre; I'm not sure if/when we're going to IP6 enable the datacentre, but when we do LP shouldn't need any changes. As such I'm going to close this.
You should be able to use 6to4 to file bugs; I suggest filing a bug on Ubuntu itself if that isn't working.
