Do you think it is a good idea to set the testbed hostname to a FQDN ?
Please do. This has been a pain for the INN CI as well.
A test with needs-root or needs-sudo should be able to set this up for
itself, if that's a requirement (you might also want to set breaks-testbed
to guarantee that any changes will be reverted before subsequent testing).
If you have a test dependency on libnss-myhostname, you should be able to
set the hostname to any FQDN of your choice (perhaps
"$(hostname --short).autopkg.test"?) and it will still resolve successfully.
I personally think the testbeds should probably *not* have a FQDN by
default, because many end-user systems will not, and having to set one
up acts as documentation that INN is (presumably?) one of the minority
of packages that do genuinely need this.
