Package: hostname
Version: 2.92
Severity: important

On a sarge machine:

$ hostname -V
hostname 2.13
$ hostname -vf
gethostname()=`foo'
Resolving `foo' ...
Result: h_name=`foo.example.com'
Result: h_aliases=`foo'
Result: h_addr_list=`10.0.0.1'
foo.example.com

On an etch machine:

$ hostname -V
hostname 2.91
$ hostname -vf
bar.example.com

(I filed this as important because the output 'hostname -vf' is an important
diagnostic tool when troubleshooting network configuration issues).
