Conversation
As part of the RFC-0012 changes, Podman Machine uses the IPv4 loopback listener for compute-driver callbacks while the local gateway launcher binds the primary listener to IPv6. The launcher still registered that primary endpoint using localhost. This meant hostname resolution could direct CLI requests to the IPv4 callback-only listener instead of the primary gateway listener. Now, we register the literal IPv6 loopback address when using the macOS default while preserving explicit bind-address overrides. Signed-off-by: Kris Hicks <khicks@nvidia.com>
