Various software relies on an always resolvable local host name. When using dynamic hostnames this is usually achieved by patching /etc/hosts at the same time as changing the host name. This however is not ideal since it requires a writable /etc file system and is fragile because the file might be edited by the administrator at the same time. nss-myhostname simply returns all locally configure public IP addresses, or -- if none are configured -- the IPv4 address 127.0.0.2 (wich is on the local loopback) and the IPv6 address ::1 (which is the local host) for whatever system hostname is configured locally. Patching /etc/hosts is thus no longer necessary. end source_dl = build configure_options += \ --libdir=/%{lib} install_cmds mkdir -pv %{BUILDROOT}%{libdir} ln -svf ../../%{lib}/libnss_myhostname.so.2 \ %{BUILDROOT}%{libdir}/libnss_myhostname.so rm -rf %{BUILDROOT}/usr/share/doc/nss-myhostname end end packages package %{name} package %{name}-debuginfo template DEBUGINFO end end
