Hello,

mirrorlist.centos.org currently doesn't correctly answer on IPv6 - The
request succeeds superficially (200 OK), but the answer is empty:

~ $ curl -6 "http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os" 
~ $ curl -4 "http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os"

Thanks for looking into it!

(Also, I wonder why the results don't contain centos.mirrors.ovh.net
which should be closest - but that's another question for another time.)

Best regards,
