[pve-devel] [PATCH installer 0/5] use hostname from DHCP lease if available

[Christoph Heiss <c.heiss@proxmox.com>]

DHCP servers can set option 12 ("host-name") for client leases [0],
telling them about their hostname. It's very much non-invasive and falls
back to the default values as done currently.

This came up while talking to Aaron, which he noticed (esp. during
trainings) that this would be a very useful feature too have.

I have tested this with the "host-name" entry set and unset, as well as
any combinations of that with the domain name being set or unset.

Christoph Heiss (5):
  net: move hostname/fqdn regexes into common code
  run env: retrieve and store hostname from DHCP lease if available
  proxinstall: use hostname from run env if available
  tui: use hostname from run env if available
  tui: add some tests for `NetworkInfo` -> `NetworkOptions` conversion
