~emersion/soju#128: failed to start TLS listener: bind: cannot assign requested address

soju fails to connect to the upstream server. I tried ircs://irc.rizon.net , ircs://irc6.rizon.net and ircs://irc.libera.chat .

All of them fail with

failed to start TLS listener on "ircs://irc.rizon.net": listen tcp 80.65.57.18:6697: bind: cannot assign requested address

nc -zv irc.rizon.net 6697
irc.rizon.net ([2602:fd9a:a:b::10]:6697) open

znc works just fine with Server = irc6.rizon.net +6697.

Soju config file:

db sqlite3 /var/lib/soju/main.db
log fs /var/lib/soju/logs/
tls /etc/ssl/soju/cert.pem /etc/ssl/soju/key.pem
listen ircs://irc.rizon.net

listen is the address soju will listen on, ie. accept incoming connections. Typically set to ircs:// to listen on 6697.

Connections to the upstream servers aren't set up in the config file, they're set up per-user via BouncerServ or a client that supports the BOUNCER ext (e.g. gamja).
