Hi,
When an IPv6 address contains 7 octets, followed by a double colon, the IP address is not parsed properly.
For example:
use Net::IP;
use Data::Dumper;
my $ip = Net::IP->new("abc:abc:abc:abc:abc:abc:abc::/112");
print Dumper($ip);
Which outputs:
$VAR1 = undef;
I have attached a patch which fixes this behaviour to this bug report.
Best regards,
Zachary
