Bug#561440: vino: Listens on IPv6 only (net.ipv6.bindv6only=1?)

Package: vino
Version: 2.28.1-2
Severity: important

Reporting this as "important" on the assumption that it may not affect
everyone.  If it does, it easily qualifies as "grave", because "makes
the package in question unusable by most or all users" doesn't seem like
a stretch for a bug that makes vino not work with IPv4.

As far as I can tell, vino now only listens on IPv6.  I can connect just
fine over IPv6, but not over IPv4.
