[Devil-linux-develop] "hostname -f" not working on 1.2RC1

[Friedrich L. <fl...@fl...>]

Hi Heiko!

I guess we need another hostname command. The one installed on 1.2RC1 is too 
simple. A lot of scripts use "hostname -f" to get the full hostname, but the 
current one sets the hostname to "-f" when called like that. A little bit fatal 
I'd say.

It's fixed in CVS.
 From now on the hostname from the 'net-tools' package will be used.
