Public bug reported:

mysql-server-core-5.5 includes the mysql_install_db script, which uses
mysql's resolveip script. However, this script is not included in the
mysql-server-core-5.5 package, only in mysql-server-5.5.

This leads to the following (confusing) error message:

# mysql_install_db 
Neither host 'devjelle2' nor 'localhost' could be looked up with
/usr/bin/resolveip
Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a correct
hostname.
If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart this script
with the --force option
# lsb_release -rd
