Package: isc-dhcp-client
Version: 4.3.1-6
Severity: normal
Hi,
I installed two minimal Debian Jessie 8.0 systems on two spare sandbox PCs in
my office. I installed
Debian 8.0 32-bit on one PC, and Debian 8.0 64-bit on the other one.
Since I have a local Dnsmasq server, I didn't want to provide any "hardcoded"
hostname information.
/etc/hostname contains only 'localhost', and similarly, /etc/hosts only has
information about
'localhost' and 'localhost.localdomain'.
On the 64-bit client, the hostname gets set correctly by the server. After
booting, I login to the
machine, and 'hostname' returns 'raymonde' as expected. 'hostname --fqdn'
returns
'raymonde.microlinux.lan'.
On the 32-bit client (which has the exact same setup), 'hostname --fqdn' should
return
'bernadette.microlinux.lan'. Unfortunately, all I get here is
'localhost.localdomain'.
Just to be on the safe side, I performed a fresh installation of a clean Debian
system on each of
these client machines, one with 32-bit, one with 64-bit. The same problem
arises again.
So it looks like this is a bug in dhclient which only affects 32-bit systems.
Cheers from the sunny South of France,
Niki Kovacs

Since no one has stated otherwise, I'm closing this as fixed by
#604883. If that isn't the case, please reopen.
