jenkins is not a package, jenkins and ci are just (some kind of) "users"
which install packages, like an admin would do.
and as written above, packages must not fail to install just because a
system uses a strange hostname.
so, both samba and debian-edu-install used to install nicely on that
host using that hostname. since debian-edu-install 2.10.9 this fails.
samba still installs nicely alone.

well, maybe, you should ask them. just as laid out above, I think this
would be a different bug, with severity wishlist.
*this* bug here, still needs to be fixed in debian-edu-install.
