Quoting from Debian netbase's changelog (see
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/n/netbase/netbase_6.3_changelog):

| netbase (5.1) unstable; urgency=low
| [...]
| * Removed ip6-localnet and ip6-mcastprefix from the default /etc/hosts
|   created by postinst because they have no purpose. (Closes: #688090)
| [...]
|
| netbase (4.30) unstable; urgency=low
|
|   * On new installs add localhost as an alias for ::1. (Closes: #427067)
| [...]
|
| netbase (4.35) unstable; urgency=low
|
|   * Do not add ff02::3 to /etc/hosts because it is not actually assigned.
|     (Closes: #499800)

FTR: netbase 5.1 pre-dates Debian/jessie AKA oldoldstable (which shipped
netbase 5.3)
