+Subject: [PATCH] Bind 'dhclient -6' to link local address.
+
+When there are more 'dhclient -6' instances running
+(one instance per network interface),
+always only one of them gets all the packets
+(even those destined for the other instances).
+The exact behaviour depends on linux kernel version, either only the
+first or only the last started instance gets all the packets,
+but the problem remains.
+
+I think the problem is that DHCPv6 part of if_register_socket() binds to
+address from local_address6 variable but this variable has never been
+initialized so it's always 0.
+
+The solution could be to bind to link local address of interface.
