Package: systemd
Version: 215-5+b1
Followup-For: Bug #760514

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Installing systemd and seeing this message:

[   72.614646] systemd-hostnamed[3560]: Warning: nss-myhostname is not 
installed. Changing the local hostname might make it unresolveable. 
Please install nss-myhostname!

By installing libnss-myhostname (note the "lib" prefix), the warning went
away, but the message should refer to the package as libnss-myhostname,
and also systemd should suggest/recommend libnss-myhostname.


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***
