That is not a fix, it is a "Workaround", and maybe it will work at the house, but in a secure network (like a company network) it will not work and it will make Ubuntu useless.
The only real fix to this is disabling IPv6 support (for desktop version). In the real world pretty much no one uses IPv6, I'm not quite sure why Ubuntu would want this enabled by default, maybe they can do it when everybody start using IPv6, meanwhile, it is worthless.
