Hi all, Not sure if this is the right place to post issues with the AWS AMIs, please let me know if it should be elsewhere. I ran into a problem with the official Debian AMIs missing 'dbus' - trying to set the hostname with 'hostnamectl', the command fails as below. A quick apt-get update and install of dbus lets hostnamectl behave as expected.
I ran into this error as it blocked my Ansible setup (v2.2), as
the standard hostname module sets names via hostnamectl. I've
tested and confirmed this with a fresh install of ami-b14ba7a7 in
us-east-1 (the Debian 8.7 image in us-east-1).
Is there a reason why dbus is not part of the AMIs? I must admit,
I'm not very familiar with it myself. Thanks, Paul |
