Log of the connection failing.

When attempting to build eclipse plugin recently it failed with this message because ipv4 was broken between the worker and downloads.

[FAILED 1]Can NOT find candidates of org.eclipse.cdt.sdk.feature.group version(8.8.1, ) at http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/eclipse/mars/!

From the exact same build this worked because it connected via ipv6 which was working.

The standard is to try ipv6 first and fallback to ipv4. We should try to make that happen if possible. I've attached a log file that might reveal what is attempting the download.

The updater uses the application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director to pull in the necessary components. There do not seem to be any ipvX flags I can set.

For now, we will have to live with this from what I see.  

I'll close this now, as wont fix. Michael, feel free to reopen if you have a better idea.

I'll look at opening a bug with the Eclipse project and I'll reference application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director.

Thank you Brian.
