Bug Description
On upgrading from Ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04 I found that my IPv6 networking no longer worked. It turned out that this was because my hop limit was set to zero:
# sysctl -a | fgrep eth0.hop_limit
net.ipv6.
which in turn seems to have been cause by a known problem in the network manager:

Since this has already been fixed in the GNOME project, can Ubuntu 15.04 please take the upstream fix?
