Actually, you have quite enough to figure this out. From my description, and the account of comment #3 you know:
1. hostname expects a specific binding to the local hostname in /etc/hosts 2. it is not in /etc/hosts by default, forcing users to add it manually to resolve the issue. 3. you probably have to either: a) alter the default content of /etc/hosts, or b) alter what hostname expects to be there. -- hostname bug: does not parse command line options properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
