That grep command finds no hits. OTOH: ~$ dpkg -S etc/hosts dpkg: *etc/hosts* not found. So *something*'s creating it, I'm just not sure what.
/usr/lib/ubiquity/netcfg/netcfg seems to have some /etc/hosts-related code, though not the actual line you quoted. This is relevant because of bug 432911 (my upgrade decided to install and run oem-config). -- upgrade to karmic trashed /etc/hosts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432892 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
