Bug Description

Binary package hint: ltsp-client-builder

ltsp-build-client used with the --mirror option cannot resolve the mirror host name when it performs the "apt-get update" after installing the base system.

I run it as:

sudo ltsp-build-client --mirror http://parroquia:3142/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

where parroquia is the apt-cacher host I use.

All was rigth until finishing installing the base system.

After that (and after some perl warning) at the moment of the apt-get update it said that it couldn't resolve host name "parroquia". Of course the program exited with error.

parroquia is a localnet host whose IP is defined in /etc/hosts

I think it could be fixed copying to the ltsp chroot the /etc/hosts file at the beginning of the ltsp-build-client script.

can you confirm it works if you use the ip address of the server ?

Yes, with the IP of the server it works.
