golang/go#9334 describes how net.Listen (as used by Alertmanager):

  • listens on 127.0.0.1 if the listenAddress is "localhost"
  • listens on all interfaces if the listenAddress is ""
Motivation for this change

I set listenAddress to "localhost", expecting this to support 127.0.0.1 and ::1, but Alertmanager only listened on 127.0.0.1, which broke my setup.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
