A very good catch! I'll have to change this back to depending on both net-tools and iproute2. We were hoping to move hostname to coreutils (and domainname to yp-tools), but that hasn't happened yet, so we still need net-tools. Thanks for pointing it out. Allan: any thoughts on moving hostname from net-tools to coreutils? Cheers, Tom
