Hi,

in the past, there was a bug in the Debian package due to the name of
host where the package where built was hardcoded into the binary.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=83725

The macros still exist in config.hin, but they aren't referenced
anywhere. Is it still possible the hostname gets hardcoded into the
binary?

/* define if you want to hard-code the domain */
#undef USE_DOMAIN_NAME

/* set your domain here */
#undef MY_DOMAIN_NAME

Bye, Jörg.
