[Pkg-squeak-devel] Bug#631193: uses obsolete gethostbyaddr instead of getaddrinfo

Package: squeak-vm
Version: 1:4.4.7.2357-1

Please use gethostbyaddr instead of getaddrinfo - gethostbyaddr doesn't
work correctly on any newer system (>=squeeze) which results in
squeak-vm logging with the *local* ip (127.0.0.1) instead of the hostname.

upgrading from lenny to squeeze and facing that hundreds of squeak
images and all of them logging with 127.0.0.1 instead of their hostname
is a major pita.

Regards,
Daniel
