[opensuse-factory] Can't add Full-Qualified-Hostname to hosts file using yast2

Hello

In the "/etc/hosts" file on opensuse 10.2, I have the "Full-Qualified-Hostname" on my
machine in like this: 
# IP-Address  Full-Qualified-Hostname  Short-Hostname 
127.0.0.2  my_hostname.my_dns  my_hostname

This was not the case with 10.3 after I installed it - so I tried to add it (for reasons I
won't go into here). 

I can add a  Full-Qualified-Hostname (in the form of the line above) manually via the
command line but I can't using yast2 by running  "DNS and Hostname" with the "Change
Hostname via DHCP" and "Write to Hostname to /etc/hosts" options selected.

This procedure works on 10.2

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong here?

TIA

Regards
James
