Dear systemd developers, Sorry for my very bad english.
We use the hostname provided by DHCP to start the right subset of our applications on each of our machines (in other words the transient hostname is used as predictable machine identifier). Make it works on the ancient SysV is straightforward but I can't find a (reasonable) way to achieve the same goal with systemd. We already use both "Requires" and "After" with "network-online.target nss-lookup.target" into our units but it isn't enough. When our units start they obtain "localhost" from %H specifier. We don't find a way to wait for (transient) hostname to be configured. The only solution that it seems to work is to replace our binary in ExecStart with a script which make a busy-loop until `hostname` output doesn't differ from "localhost". Is there a better way? Thank you very much! Ciao, Alessio
