Description
/etc/hosts is being overwritten by the base pkg, which breaks hosts setup by DNS forwarder/resolver since it expects a symlink to /var/etc/hosts
Similar story for /etc/syslog.conf which should be a link to /var/etc/syslog.conf
If you reboot again post upgrade /etc/rc will fix them both and make them links again, but we should probably exclude them from the base package.
