Could you test the above update, and provide feedback (and karma if appropriate) if it fixes the bug for you?
I changed 'Pretty host name' to fedora.mydomain.com 'Real host name' was changed to 'fedoramydomaincom.localdomain' during typing 'Pretty host name'. This behavior doesn't look correctly for me. What is the difference between 'Pretty host name' and 'Real host name'? 'Real host name' is value from /etc/hostname? 'Pretty host name' is hostname returned by 'hostname' command?
See man hostnamectl(1)
Thanks, then it works. I still missing some help in GUI. Explanation of fields should be useful. Description after hover with mouse over 'Real host name' or query 'button' next to text array field.
