Comment 12 for bug 659872

Hello. I started a thread some time ago on the Ubuntu forums about this issue:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1596603&page=2

Through responses on that thread, I eventually came here.

I have two computers, and on one this bug seems to no longer be an issue. However, on my other computer, my /etc/hosts file continues to be over written with every reboot.

So I am confused as to whether a fix/patch has been released or not.

I'm hoping a more consistent and logical solution will be offered instead of using different loopback addresses as a workaround.
