Description Lukas Zapletal 2016-09-01 09:53:08 UTC 
# virt-spawn debian-8 --hostname jessie.local.lan
...

# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 unassigned-hostname.unassigned-domain jessie.local.lan
...

# hostname -f
unassigned-hostname.unassigned-domain

But expected is:

# hostname -f
jessie.local.lan

The thing is that order matters in hosts, the FQDN should always be first on the line:

127.0.1.1 jessie.local.lan jessie alias2 alias3

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-09-02 22:16:07 UTC 
This is most likely now fixed, see:

https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/cbb70f1deee861e71081349ee20bf8fe0601a615
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/13e47b12187c2485101bb34030b10f2bbf9f9b9d

In libguestfs >= 1.35.4 and >= 1.34.3.
