There's nothing wrong here. On Linux, if you bind an IPv6 socket to a
port, it also automatically binds to the same port in IPv4. So a
subsequent bind to IPv4 fails, but that's not a problem.

That is certainly not going to work. Why is your Subnet completely
different from what you configured in tinc-up?
