>Description:
In a default install, the search order for root@localhost looks for 
localhost.domain before localhost.

The default hosts file comes with a localhost line.

The sysinst adds a obviously unneccessary duplicate localhost line, 
that probably should be localhost.domain:

>How-To-Repeat:
(1) install a clean system

>Fix:
/home/current/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/net.c

write_etc_hosts(FILE *f)

        scripting_fprintf(f, "127.0.0.1 localhost\n");

should be:

        l = strlen(net_domain);
        if (l > 0) {
              scripting_fprintf(f, "127.0.0.1 localhost.%s\n", net_domain );
        }
