      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      A customer is specifying an IPv6 address as backup location: OUTPUT_URL=nfs://[2001:db8:ca2:6::101]/root/REAR

      This doesn't work because the code is not parsing the address properly.
      Refer to https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/3242 for proposed Upstream PR.

      There are a lot of fixes to bring into ReaR for this to work.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      All

      How reproducible:

      Always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Set up 2 VMs with IPv6 addresses (2nd one acting as NFS or SSHFS server)
      2. Backup one VM to the other

      Expected results

      Works

      Actual results

      Fails in various places depending on URL scheme specified.
