[Bug 653405] Re: rabbitmq-server fails to start if hostname is unresolvable or has changed since first starting

[Martin Pitt]

Eww, automatically changing configuration files in maintainer scripts?
That looks like a no-go to me. It does not even check if the IP already
exists in /etc/hosts, or whether the file is used at all (in
nsswitch.conf).

Can we instead just make the package generate an error debconf note if
/etc/hosts is misconfigured and fail gracefully?
