--- Begin Message ---Package: hostname Version: 3.11 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer, The binaries for this package are inconsistently hard-linked by the Makefile. Note that all are hard-linked together except hostname itself: mattcen@toto:tmp$ dpkg -L hostname | grep bin/ | xargs ls -il 10403 -rwxr-xr-x 4 root root 18760 Feb 17 2012 /bin/dnsdomainname 10403 -rwxr-xr-x 4 root root 18760 Feb 17 2012 /bin/domainname 10402 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 18760 Feb 17 2012 /bin/hostname 10403 -rwxr-xr-x 4 root root 18760 Feb 17 2012 /bin/nisdomainname 10403 -rwxr-xr-x 4 root root 18760 Feb 17 2012 /bin/ypdomainname I think the correct fix for this is to sym-link all binaries to 'hostname' rather than hard-link them: sed '/ln/s/-f /-fs /' Makefile Alternatively, if, for some odd reason hard links are required: sed '/ln/s/-f hostname/-f ${BASEDIR}\/bin\/hostname/' Makefile -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.8-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages hostname depends on: ii libc6 2.13-38 hostname recommends no packages. hostname suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
