    Upon investigation, it appears that updating the cloud-init package to the
    latest version would resolve this issue. The latest versions of cloud-init
    include improved support for IPv6-only environments and should handle the
    metadata service correctly when using IPv6 addressing.

    I kindly request that the cloud-init package be updated to the latest
    stable version that includes better IPv6-only support. This will ensure
    that Debian 12 instances function correctly in modern cloud environments
    where IPv6-only networking is the default.

    This is not impossible, but unlikely to happen at this point in the
    Debian 12 lifecycle. However, Debian 13 will be released later this
    year. If you're able to test the current prerelease images (see https://cloud.debian.org/images/cloud/trixie/daily/) I'd love to hear
    how it works.
