wget: socket(AF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol


Hi, all!
I am just getting make friends with linux / openwrt
The following problem occured when trying to update the installable package list:

root@OpenWrt:/# ipkg update
Downloading http://localhost/squidge/packages/Packages
wget: socket(AF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol
An error ocurred, return value: 1.
Collected errors:
ipkg_download: ERROR: Command failed with return value 1: `wget --passive-ftp
-q -P /tmp/ipkg-k8bHv0 http://localhost/squidge/packages/Packages'
root@OpenWrt:/#

The file is in its correct place. Interfaces have their IPv4 addresses.
httpd is running, (a test cgi script works from a win. pc in the same subnet)

Any ideas?

Still don't understand, but after some modification on /etc/config/network file (removing dhcp option from eth0)solved the problem
