Comment 2 for bug 768296

Marking confirmed in Ubuntu's cloud-init, and subscribing Marc Cluet, who is hitting some issues with this, when trying to run a rabbitmq-server in an Ubuntu cloud instance.

It seems that the rabbitmq-server needs to be able to resolve the system's host name.

We're trying to figure out the best way to do that. Marc had a proposed patch that added it in the rabbitmq-server's package's postinst, but that implementation was at least initially rejected.
