Package: netcfg As discussed in the debian-boot mailing list recently[0], netcfg should (IMHO) never put the system hostname in /etc/hosts as an alias for 'localhost.localdomain'. If the system hostname cannot be added to /etc/hosts as the canonical hostname for a permanent real IP address
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 86.44.102.62 pengo then it should be written as the canonical hostname for a 127.* address. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.1.1 pengo In the long run it may be better not to write the system hostname into /etc/hosts at all.
