Public bug reported:
The "order" option in /etc/host.conf has been inoperative for years. It
should no longer be included in host.conf on new installs.
In Debian 7 the "order" line is no longer included.
In Ubuntu 12.04:
$ cat /etc/host.conf
# The "order" line is only used by old versions of the C library.
order hosts,bind
multi on
(In addition, the "order" option should no longer be documented in
host.conf(5), but there is already a Debian bug report about that.)
** Affects: glibc (Ubuntu)
