It looks like with the new ubiquity it is now unlikely we will get in a state where Network Manger will try and fall back. But basically if the hostname isn't set & nothing is in /etc/hosts. Network Manger tries to create it's own /etc/hosts
Trying this with an Ubuntu install I'm unable to recreate the situation even removing contents of both /etc/hostname & /etc hosts , as well as /etc/init/hostname.conf (so no hostname is set). I will check back with Mario and see if we can carefully walk through the install. As long as /etc/hostname & /etc/hosts are created before Network Manager is started .. should never see the situation with network manager creating a fall back (bad) /etc/hosts file. -- oem-config incorrectly setting up /etc/hosts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/471498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
