Title:
  hostnamed should not print warning about nss-myhostname

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently hostnamed prints the following error in syslog:

  systemd-hostnamed[24508]: Warning: nss-myhostname is not installed.
  Changing the local hostname might make it unresolveable. Please
  install nss-myhostname!

  Since nss-myhostname was rejected as being the right approach in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libnss-
  myhostname/+bug/1162478/comments/6 , we should not print the warning
  message in the LTS release, even if hostnamed doesn't currently modify
  /etc/hosts (LP: #1162475).

  Can we please patch this warning out to prevent users from thinking
  something is wrong on their system and leading them to install libnss-
  myhostname?
