Describe the issue

I ran into this issue on an ubuntu 22.04 server that has only IPv6 configured:

Preparing to unpack .../audiobookshelf_2.4.3_amd64.deb ...
Existing config found.
METADATA_PATH=/usr/share/audiobookshelf/metadata
CONFIG_PATH=/usr/share/audiobookshelf/config
FFMPEG_PATH=/usr/lib/audiobookshelf-ffmpeg/ffmpeg
FFPROBE_PATH=/usr/lib/audiobookshelf-ffmpeg/ffprobe
TONE_PATH=/usr/lib/audiobookshelf-ffmpeg/tone
PORT=13378
HOST=0.0.0.0
Starting FFMPEG Install

Connecting to johnvansickle.com (johnvansickle.com)|107.180.57.212|:443... failed: Network is unreachable.
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/audiobookshelf_2.4.3_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 new audiobookshelf package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 4
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/audiobookshelf_2.4.3_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

It seems like johnvansickle.com only has IPv4 configured. Works after adding an IPv4 address.
Edit: Seems like the provider does not configure IPv4 gateways by default.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. install deb packages on a server with only IPv6

Audiobookshelf version

2.4.3

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Debian/PPA

The server that FFMPEG uses to host the files does not have have a ipv6 address. Your server can't reach the FFPMEG server so the install stops. You need to setup a 6to4 tunnel so you can reach the regular v4 internet space.

Yep. Fixing it was not hard. I just thought to let you know because this kind of problem is only going to get more frequent as IPv4 addresses run out and hosters move to IPv6-only by default.
