/etc/hosts may also contain perfectly valid lines like this one: ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain which don't help a bit. LibreOffice is an office suite and has no business trying to get the domain name IMHO. This code should be removed and if it does something useful, that something should be rewritten to not depend on network resources. -- Francois Tigeot _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
