Bug ID: 2183905 Summary: replace gettext hostname helper with /usr/bin/hostname Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: gettext Assignee: suanand@redhat.com Reporter: petersen@redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: dueno@redhat.com, i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, nphilipp@redhat.com, petersen@redhat.com, praiskup@redhat.com, suanand@redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Description of problem: gettext includes its own hostname helper program (presumably for systems that do not provide the hostname tool) which uses deprecated gethostbyname() function...
If /usr/bin/hostname is a drop in replacement then it seems better just to use that in place of it - this would avoid the rpminspect warnings/errors about gethostbyname() usage.
