nodata (ubuntu-nodata) wrote : deja-dup gets wrong hostname when ipv6 is disabled

I recently disabled ipv6 on my computer and used deja-dup for the first time.

Today I re-enabled ipv6 and was surprised to be told that my current backup was for the machine localhost6.localdomain6

This is wrong. My machine is called mybox, and this is the output returned by the hostname command.

$ cat /etc/hosts
192.168.1.5 mybox # Added by NetworkManager
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 mybox localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
