on my specific setup epmd was starting just fine if there is no excplicit IPv6 bind address set (via the ERL_EPMD_ADDRESS env). On `netstat -ntlp` epmd was visible and listening to ::1. IPv6 on box was disabled per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6#Disabling_IPv6
I'll assume it may be working fine for a) if you don't specify a bind address tough I didn't test this. Unfortunately I've changed my setup and I'm unable to confirm this.
FTR: upstream packages (via Erlang's Ubuntu repository) are compiled with IPv4 and this is probably the easiest workaround for the case.
