Hi Arch enthuasiasts, With testing/filesystem 2016.11-2, I can no longer use my local hostname to acess services on the local machine. For example: $ hostname PC12574 $ ping PC12574 ping: PC12574: Name or service not known Seems changes in nsswitch.conf [1] does the effect. If I change the hosts: line in nsswitch.conf back to the old configuration "files resolve mymachines myhostname", or remove the [!UNAVAIL=return] part from this line, ping works fine: $ ping PC12574 PING PC12574(PC12574 (fe80::ae22:bff:fe77:e20b%enp3s0)) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from PC12574 (fe80::ae22:bff:fe77:e20b%enp3s0): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.025 ms 64 bytes from PC12574 (fe80::ae22:bff:fe77:e20b%enp3s0): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.078 ms Is it a bug? Or such a usage is just a non-standard coincidence? Thanks for any help.
