Hi Folks!  Thanks to your IPv6 OS detection submissions, we've been
able to incorporate them into the new machine learning system and
enable IPv6 OS detection.  So if you scan your submitted machines
again, they should now be properly identified in Nmap output.
Congrats on new release, but I hope I'm not late to report bug. In short,
new nmap version (ncat, to be precise) does not link cleanly:
Similar problem was last year:

Is it on Ubuntu? If not, what is it?

Sorry for not including the distro, but it was available on the  
reference URL I gave. I'm talking about Arch on i686.

Regarding Ubuntu, it works on 32/64 on both latest and LTS versions.
No problem with that.

I think I know what's happening here, just need some time to fix it.
Some platforms need to link with libnl and some do not. It might only
happen if you have installed libnl or libpcap from your distribution.
This could be a workaround:
