# HOSTNAME FIX
# If the hostname is too long Distrobox will fail during setup
# Additonally, Anaconda likes to set the hostname to be the ipv6 address
# Let's check the length and reset it to something sensible if that happens.

@KyleGospo Condition seems problematic as the hostnamectl command will always get executed. Hostname of my device always gets reverted due to this.

Perhaps

if (( $(hostname | wc -m) > 15 )); then

?
Note that the newline character outputted by hostname is still counted by wc (So hostname bazzite will be counted as 8 characters).
