Package: flashbake
Version: 0.27.1-0.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the flashbake program uses the hostname www.noreply.org, appearently to
determine the public ip of the host.

| src/flashbake/plugins/location.py:144:        no_reply = 
'http://www.noreply.org'

However, this hostname does not resolve any longer, and the domain
holder's words (asked in private) suggest it's not going to come back.
As a result, flashbake will be somewhere between in reduced
functionality and plain broken. From "plugin" in the path I assumed the
first, bug severity would have been higher else.

Please disable that code path as it's useless now. And if possible, find
a different solution for this.

Regards,

    Christoph
