My pitfall was that I didn't know (but Pekka told me) that "ip -6 flush"
also understand scopes.
So I use the suggestion given by Thomas to run through all scopes of the
addresses and flush dedicated like
ip -6 addr flush dev <device> scope global
ip -6 addr flush dev <device> scope site
BTW: how many scopes are currently defined?
ip help shows me:
SCOPE-ID := [ host | link | global | NUMBER ]
What means NUMBER and why is "site" understood but not in online help?
