Title:
  preseed with unqualified host:port fails - upstream bug fixed

Status in preseed package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This (fixed) Debian bug : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=695908 affects 12.04.5 (preseed-1.50ubuntu1)

  If you're (for example) using multi-site puppet to deploy hosts, and
  want the pxe clients to fetch their preseed from their "domain local"
  puppet install, you might say they should preseed from
  http://puppet:80 - unfortunately, when the host boots it attempts to
  fetch puppet:80.domain.dom

  (In theory removing the port would "fix" this, unfortunately foreman
  likes to make sure there's a port in the preseed url, so that's not
  trivial either).
