Package: hostname
Version: 2.95
Severity: normal

seems like an old bug, on a new version.
I tried it on another squeeze, this one boots vith ipv4 line for the name in /etc/hosts and I change it after... it keeps answering the FQDN it got at boot time.
But if I boot on ipv6 only (name definition), it fails with :
hostname: No address associated with name

here is my /etc/hosts :

127.0.0.1              localhost
2001:660:6101:253::242 cassandra.reaumur.u-bordeaux.fr cassandra
147.210.245.242        proxy-apt.u-bordeaux.fr proxy-apt

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
