fqdn.Get is deprecated by the author:

// Deprecated:
// This function has bad API, works poorly and is replace by
// FqdnHostname. Please please do not use it. It will be removed
// in the next version.

The old function resolves the FQDN by doing a forward lookup of the hostname, and then a reverse lookup of the IP address. This may lead to surprising results. The new function aims to give the same result as hostname -f.

Another problem with the fqdn.Get API is that it has no facility to return errors. This patch throws away the actual error for simplicity's sake, though.

This needs a DCO sign-off. You can use git commit -s --amend to add it.

The old function resolves the FQDN by doing a forward lookup of the
hostname, and then a reverse lookup of the IP address.  This may lead
to surprising results.  The new function aims to give the same result as
`hostname -f`.

Another problem with the fqdn.Get API is that it has no facility to
