Dear Maintainer,

my network have IPv6 support and all my machines get IPv6 addresses by default.

I tried to disable IPv6 addresses on one machine on certain interface using
gnome-control-center.
But despite of the disabled IPv6 option network interfaces gets IPv6 address
after reconnection.
IPv6 option in gnome-control-center is still disabled.
I expected, that network interface shouldn't have IPv6 address if the option is
disabled.
