libnss-myhostname is "Priority: extra" and has no reverse depends, so it would not be expected to come with any Wheezy release. > However I installed libnss-myhostname, amd I am now able to start proxmox > pve-cluster, which I wasn't able before due to failing local dns lookup. There is no failing local DNS lookup. It has pointed been out your /etc/hosts has a line missing. It would look like this 127.0.1.1 hostname or this 127.0.1.1 hostname.domain hostname and is put there by the installer. libnss-myhostname works without that line being present.

It isn't possible for the host command to come up with an IP for localhost using the DNS.
