Hello,
Here is a patch which makes hostname try an IPv6 lookup in case the IPv4
one fails. This is needed to make hostname work on IPv6-only hosts.
This is a quick minimal non-instrusive half-fix only. I'd like to
implement the following behaviour if you and/or upstream are instereted:
- by default, use both IPv4 and IPv6 for finding addresses/aliases;
- allow the user to restrict operation to a given address space by
using some command-line flags (such as -4/-6). This would allow
scripts to trust hostname to give them IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
only.
What do you think ?

Description:
hostname - utility to set/show the host name or domain name
Closes: 253957 290178 303579
Changes:
hostname (2.90) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Rewrite hostname to hopefully be a bit more organzied.
- moved localhost() and localdomain() to hostname.c
- code to set the host or domain name moved to set_name()
- code to display the host or domain name moved to show_name()
- clean up main()
- i18n support removed, seems to be unused and outdated
- verbose output removed
- check for non-used arguments (closes: #253957)
- remove the useless man directory from the source
- remove unneeded header files
- simplify the build system
.
* Set the debhelper compat level to 4.
* Build depend on debhelper (>= 4.0).
* Improve the copyright file. (closes: #290178)
* Update standards version. No changes.
* Adjust the synopsis to be in line with the Developer's Reference.
.
* A check_name function was added to check whether hostnames follow RFC
1035 syntax.
.
* Use inet_ntop instead of inet_ntoa when printing addresses, in order to
support IPv6 addresses. (closes: #303579)
