IPv6 Failing on 23.1.1_2

I have just upgraded from version 22 (22.7 I think) and am getting routing error messages every few seconds of the form "cannot forward from fe80::ca56:4eae:27be:12b0 to ff02::1:3 nxt 17 received on em2".  To setup IPv6 on version 22 I enabled it on all interfaces and on the firewall then set the LAN to Track Interface . . . I think!  That worked well on version 22, can anyone help solve the problem on version 23? 

Can't help, there are issues with IPv6 it seems. I just took it off for now until they get the bugs resolved. Causing the network to fail.
OPNsense 26.1.2_5  - QEMU/KVM (Ubuntu), i9-9900K 16 core @ 5ghz, 16GB RAM, 64GB SSD, 2 dedicated SFP+ NICs

Indeed it does fail.  Is there a message thread somewhere that I can monitor to track progress and/or share my results?

Make sure to add details to your report, or at least try if 23.1.2 solves your issues.

Well, I just upgraded from the quoted release to 23.1.2 and now I have no connectivity at all.  A ping request from the router to any external site returns "ping: sendto: Permission denied".

After a reset to factory defaults and a restore of the configuration I'm happy to say that IPv6 is working now.  Now I just need to figure out why live log updates aren't working anymore, and what else isn't quite right.
