A new Debian version for bridge-utils is available.  There is also a new
upstream release but it's not yet packaged by Debian.

bridge-utils (1.7-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add BRIDGE_DISABLE_LINKLOCAL_IPV6_ALSO_PHYS to /etc/default/bridge-utils
    to stop disabling IPv6 on physical interfaces of vlan ports if set to no. 
    Closes: #989162.
  * Update interfaces man page, IPv6 works with STP on after DAD was fixed.
    Closes: #980507.
  * Treat vlan ports the same as ifupdown, avoid octal vlans. Closes: #995627.
  * Update NEWS file to fix us blaming the kernel for the MAC address
    selection that is really overridden by systemd.
