Bug#236533: I am confused

[Thomas Hood <jdthood@aglu.demon.nl>]

I am confused about all this hostname stuff.

I think that we should stop calling the argument of "send host-name"
a "hostname".  Instead let's call it a "host-name".  The host-name
can be different from the hostname.  See #239591.

I take it we want to do something like this:

    Try DHCP
    If DHCP succeeded {
        If a hostname is returned {
            Ask the user for a hostname with the returned hostname
            as the default.
        } else {
            Ask the user for a hostname with "debian"
            as the default.
        }
        Write hostname to /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
    } else {
        Ask the user for a host-name
        Try DHCP with "send host-name <host-name>"
        If DHCP succeeded {
            Write "send host-name <host-name>" to dhclient.conf that
            gets used after reboot
            If a hostname is returned {
                Ask the user for a hostname with the returned hostname
                as the default.
            } else {
                Ask the user for a hostname with <host-name>
                as the default.
            }
        Write hostname to /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
        }
    }
