[Bug 395495] [NEW] IPv6-only mode would be nice

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totd

totd is often (only?) used for IPv6-only networks.
In such networks IPv4 addresses are pretty much useless.
They may even break some programs, which only use the first (possibly IPv4) address and give up instead of trying the next (IPv6) address.

Therefore an option for totd would be nice to let totd purge all IPv4 adresses in its resposes.
(I.e. instead of *adding* a IPv6 address it should *replace* the IPv4 address with the tricked IPv6 address.)

This should be only a few lines of code and would improve the usability
of totd-powered IPv6-only networks a lot.

** Affects: totd (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
