ipset cannot parse valid IP address

[Konstantin Shestakov]

I have got this error while adding address to ipset:

ipset v6.29: Syntax error: cannot parse 192.162.242.129 : resolving to IPv4 address failed

but it is valid and existing address:

PING 192.162.242.129 (192.162.242.129) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.162.242.129: icmp_seq=1 ttl=58 time=115 ms
64 bytes from 192.162.242.129: icmp_seq=2 ttl=58 time=112 ms
64 bytes from 192.162.242.129: icmp_seq=3 ttl=58 time=112 ms

I'm not able to reproduce this on Ubuntu artful:

$ sudo ipset add myset 192.162.242.129
$ sudo ipset list
Name: myset
Type: hash:ip
Revision: 4
Header: family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536
Size in memory: 136
References: 0
Number of entries: 1
Members:
192.162.242.129

What type of set are you trying to add the IP to, and on which Ubuntu release?

Type: hash:ip

Ubuntu server 16.04.3

I am not sure the problem is still there.
