Bug Description
On dapper installer ubiquity hostname checking accepted "-rdp" as a valid hostname but after the installation the system was unusable as sudo was not working anymore. It gives me an error about gethostbyname() can't resolve hostname (none). and when I use hostname the output is (none).

* Remove "Set Time..." button, which is far more trouble than it's worth
(LP: #49412, #52716, #52717, #73907, #76564). You can adjust the time
after installation.
* Fix a silly typo while setting up the resize progress bar (LP: #77523).
* Don't say "beta version" in the alpha intro message.
* Move language list box to the left-hand side of its page rather than the
bottom, on the basis that you have to choose a language before you can
read the text.
* Switch to glade-3 (those with branches that modify ubiquity.glade, take
note).
* Add special cases to restore correct handling of Chinese and Portuguese
language codes.
* If /cdrom/
release notes on the language page. See doc/README for the format

* Remove no-longer-canonical /distros from Launchpad URLs.
* Sync up hostname handling with netcfg; it now allows hostnames between 2
and 63 characters in length, forbids them starting or ending with a
hyphen, and interprets hostnames containing dots as hostname.domain and
adjusts /etc/hosts accordingly (LP: #52501, #72909).
