+PKG_SUMMARY    = glibc plugin for local system host name resolution.
+
+define PKG_DESCRIPTION
+       nss-myhostname is a plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS)
+       functionality of the GNU C Library (glibc) providing host name
+       resolution for the locally configured system hostname as returned by
+       gethostname(2). 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.
