Package: ppp-udeb
Version: 2.4.4rel-9
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i patch
This change was requested by Josef Wolf in the following thread:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2007/12/msg00160.html
The attached patch implements this and ensures that the created /etc/hosts
file is similar to the one created by netcfg when regular Ethernet or
wireless networking is used.
The patch applies on top of the last one for #455366.
Cheers,
FJP
