This bug is just as much not a bug now as it was when it was filed. If
anyone other than deviantart is advertising hostnames that start or end
in hyphens, I'd be curious to know. If this is pretty much just a
deviantart problem, has anyone considered talking to them about not
doing that? The fact that someone does it doesn't make it valid. You
can put literally ANY STRING YOU WANT in DNS, but that doesn't make it a
valid host name. Period.
** Changed in: glibc (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
