Public bug reported: If no data source is available and the local hostname is set to "localhost.localdomain", and /etc/hosts looks like:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 Then in sources/__init__.py in get_hostname: - util.get_hostname() will return 'localhost.localdomain' - util.get_fqdn_from_hosts(hostname) will return 'localhost' - 'toks' will be set to [ 'localhost.localdomain', 'localdomain' And ultimately the system hostname will be set to 'localhost.localdomain.localdomain', which isn't useful to anybody.
