ipv6-only deployment fails : runc Download works only with ipv4 node

[unkn0wn107]

What happened?

I have 2 workers ipv4 and ipv6, 3 etcd ipv6 only and 2 control-plane ipv6-only in inventory config.

The playbook runs smoothly till runc Download always failing for ipv6-only nodes, previous operations work fine, including downloads of other dependencies.

It works well when I provision ipv4 for all servers

What did you expect to happen?

Runc download well for ipv6-only servers and playbook deployment works till the end.

How can we reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

Define an inventory with ipv4-enabled and ipv6-only nodes.
It fails at Download runc

Can you try to download the GitHub release on an ipv6 host?

• https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/releases/tag/v1.1.14
• https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/releases/download/v1.1.14/runc.amd64

Technically, this is not a Kubespray issue. It depends on whether GitHub supports IPv6.
I used dig to check GitHub, but there is no AAAA record.
