The ndisc6 package is not yet available in EPEL 8.
See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1779134
Until the package is available set the pkg-map to "" for
the ndisc6 package when distro is redhat and install the
package using || true in the element script instead so
that CentOS 8 build's do not fail because of the missing
package.
Once the package is in EPEL 8 this change can be reverted.

When the rdisc6 utility is available probe for router
advertisement. configure eni and rhel-netscripts interfaces
to do IPv6 address configuration according to the flags
in the RA recived from the router.
The systemd service file timeout is DIB_DHCP_TIMEOUT * 2,
so that DHCPv4 can timout, and dhcpv6 run before the service
times out.
Retries are commented in dhclient.conf, without it we end up
trying DIB_DHCP_TIMEOUT * 60 before the client move on to
IPv6.
WHEN:
Stateful address conf. : No
Stateful other conf. : No
THEN:
Do not run dhclient at all, autoconfiguration via
SLAAC only.
WHEN:
Stateful address conf. : No
Stateful other conf. : Yes
THEN:
Run "dhclient -6 -S", The ``-S`` option makes the
dhcp client not request an address, only other
options such as DNS servers and NTP servers from
DHCPv6 server.
WHEN:
Stateful address conf. : Yes
Stateful other conf. : Yes
THEN:
The dhcp client should request an address _and_ other
options such as DNS servers and NTP servers from
DHCPv6 server.
NOTE: No IPv6 support added for suse-netscripts

Currently we have all our elements and library files in a top-level
directory and install them into
<root>/share/diskimage-builder/[elements|lib] (where root is either /
or the root of a virtualenv).
The problem with this is that editable/development installs (pip -e)
do *not* install data_files. Thus we have no canonical location to
look for elements -- leading to the various odd things we do such as a
whole bunch of guessing at the top of disk-image-create and having a
special test-loader in tests/test_elements.py so we can run python
unit tests on those elements that have it.
data_files is really the wrong thing to use for what are essentially
assets of the program. data_files install works well for things like
config-files, init.d files or dropping documentation files.
By moving the elements under the diskimage_builder package, we always
know where they are relative to where we import from. In fact,
pkg_resources has an api for this which we wrap in the new
diskimage_builder/paths.py helper [1].
We use this helper to find the correct path in the couple of places we
need to find the base-elements dir, and for the paths to import the
library shell functions.
Elements such as svc-map and pkg-map include python unit-tests, which
we do not need tests/test_elements.py to special-case load any more.
They just get found automatically by the normal subunit loader.
I have a follow-on change (I69ca3d26fede0506a6353c077c69f735c8d84d28)
to move disk-image-create to a regular python entry-point.
Unfortunately, this has to move to work with setuptools. You'd think
a symlink under diskimage_builder/[elements|lib] would work, but it
doesn't.
[1] this API handles stuff like getting files out of .zip archive
modules, which we don't do. Essentially for us it's returning
__file__.
