Thanks a lot for the patch. It's very kind to look out for the Debian
packaging.
I was pretty surprised to find out that there's a separate package just
for the hostname command. Never noticed that before. However, the
hostname package is marked "essential" and Debian policy says:
Packages are not required to declare any dependencies they have on
other packages which are marked `Essential' (see below), and should
not do so unless they depend on a particular version of that
package.[1]
so probably we should not apply this change.
Thanks,
Ben.
