Ok, then we agree. I don't personally care whether it's NSCD or a magical oracle as long as our operating system's gethostbyname() function actually functions on mobile devices. (Caching DNS would be a huge bonus, as other operating systems do this and us not doing so makes the internet "feel" significantly, visibly slower compared to them, but that's a separate bug) -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
