Summary	0001034: -f parameter to hostname may not be known on some OS
Description	At least on OpenBSD and NetBSD, the hostname(1) command doens't know about the -f parameter. hostname defaults to output the full hostname without any parameter. This command is used only once to find the hostname of the box building sogo, and is used in the about dialog. Attached patch checks in configure whether hostname -f works, and sets the varible HOSTNAME to the fqdn, either with hostname -f or just using hostname. In SoObjects/SOGo/GNUmakefile.preamble, make the HOSTNAME ?= conditional, in case someone doesn't run configure, it will call the existing statement (which still will fail on OpenBSD or NetBSD...)

buzzdee 2011-04-13 11:38 reporter ~0002377	could this be reviewed and commented, or even included if its fine? Shortly after a release is a good time to add new stuff, since the plenty of time for testing till the next release ;)
