Perhaps sudo should try to use the name from /etc/hostname when gethostbyname fails? It looks quite simple to do that, and assume that you'll have there 127:0.0.1 (in both IPv4 and v6)?!?!?! -- sudo shouldn’t ABSOLUTELY NEED to look up the host it’s running on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3290

Just because applications like gnome-terminal or mc are broken doesn't mean that on your local box there should definitely be no resolving done. Or if there is some kind of resolving done, resolve 127.0.0.1 or localhost (just to be not so IP-minded) But I see NO reason for sudo to make any DNS r
