[Bug 2039374] Re: xbrlapi causes long delay in GUI login

[Samuel thibault]

> if there is an active IPv6 regular (non-loopback) interface with an
IPv6 address and network connection, then connection attempts to ::1
seem to hang and timeout

Probably it uses the default route to send packets to ::1, which is
deemed not to receive any response.

> I haven't seen any other daemons with issues from this. Maybe they are
using IPv4 for loopback?

Probably

** Description changed:

- Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS 
+ Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
  xbrlapi 6.4-4ubuntu3
  
  After logging in to the GUI, there is a delay of over 2 minutes before
  the desktop environment loads (screen will be black with a mouse cursor)
  
  This is caused by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90xbrlapi
  
  The script runs xbrlapi, which hangs for 2 minutes or so, presumably
  because it is trying to connect to a BrlAPI server that doesn't exist on
  my machine.
  
  I guess this packages was installed by orca, because I did not directly
  install it myself and I don't need it.
  
  Did not happen before 22.04
  
  Others have this issue:
