[Bug 277568] Re: invoking hostname as domainname does not produce results described in --help

2009-12-09 Thread Colin Watson
I've just merged hostname 2.98 into Ubuntu Lucid.

hostname (2.98) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Cristian Greco ]
  * Fix some indentation.
  * bump version to 2.98.
  * attempt to clarify program documentation in usage() and manpage.

  [ Michael Meskes ]
  * Made program behave exactly like yp-tools domainname when called as
{nis,yp,}domainname.
  * We replace nis by installing {yp,nis,}domainname, closes: #546753

[Bug 277568] Re: invoking hostname as domainname does not produce results described in --help

2008-10-15 Thread Graham Inggs
Looking at this again, a more complete patch would be:

   if (!strcmp(progname, domainname) ||
!strcmp(progname, nisdomainname) ||
!strcmp(programe, ypdomainname))
   type = NIS;

I realize that this functionality has been moved into the nis package,
but installing nis just to provide the domainname functionality has the
side effect of a long delay during boot, accompanied by the message
binding to YP server

Stefano Rivera suggested that a package providing the domainname, nisdomainname 
and ypdomainname links could be created that is incompatible with the nis 
package.
I believe that the patch above, combined with a 'nislinks' package installed 
with the hostname package is the solution.
