Came across a problem with
yowsupin an IPv6 network. Currently,AF_INETsocket is always created during connection to WhatsApp endpoints, and it fails to connect to non-IPv4 addresses. However,socketmodule has a convenience functioncreate_connectionthat creates and connects a socket to a given address. It handles detection of address family and socket type itself, thus creating a suitable socket both in IPv4 and IPv6 environments.
