Hi, iproute2 just got updated to 3.5.0-1 (previously was 3.4.0-2), because I use [testing]. ip addr show seems to work differently now, showing me my ipv6 assigned address by default rather than my ipv4 address (which was what I previously got when running ip addr show. The man page for ip-address says the command 'displays addresses and their properties', which means it should at least show the ipv4 address as well? I'm wondering whether this is simply an upstream change/bug, since the man page is a bit unclear and a change in behaviour is normally mentioned in man pages (isn't it?). Of course, easy to workaround using ip -4 addr show....
