lava: android: wget: bad address 'people.linaro.org'

above issue can be fixed by Acquiring Proxy. I found this from asac.
- "echo 'Acquire::http::Proxy "http://192.168.1.10:3128";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/lava-apt-proxy"

I have modified my yaml file and submitted job. hope it will success the job this time.

As per the job runs given below, it is not a problem anymore:

Android - https://validation.linaro.org/lava-server/scheduler/job/53745
Ubuntu - https://validation.linaro.org/lava-server/scheduler/job/53742

Hence marking this bug as 'invalid'. If you feel otherwise, please re-open with fresh job run examples.

<stylesen> harigollamudi|1: nkambo: am able to reproduce it inside a shell script called from android
<stylesen> nkambo: yes we should! :)
<nkambo> stylesen, do you think it is a lava issue or android issue ?
<stylesen> nkambo: harigollamudi|1: Hope this is specific to android and not to ubuntu
<stylesen> nkambo: it is because of the /system/bin/sh shell in android
<nkambo> bhoj, ^
<stylesen> nkambo: am running the test in ubuntu to reconfirm
<harigollamudi|1> stylesen: nkambo: I have raised a bug related 'bad address' issue
<harigollamudi|1> nkambo: I do not know that this 'bad address' issue exist in ubuntu
<stylesen> harigollamudi|1: nkambo: I shall try to close this issue today
<harigollamudi|1> stylesen: thank you :)

It is a problem due to lack of nameserver config in the images! We cannot provide a resolve.conf on the fly on android images since it is a readonly filesystem. Following are the relevant lines from the log:

The relevant script used in the above job looks like the following:

<snip>
#!/system/bin/sh

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /system/etc/resolv.conf
wget http://people.apache.org/~stylesen
</snip>

This issue can also be rectified with the snippet

netcfg eth0 dhcp
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8

before calling
wget http://testdata.validation.linaro.org/tjbench/nightshot_iso_100.ppm

Instead of saying "can also be rectified" the right thing to use here
is, "this is the solution for the issue" on android images.

I will check ubuntu based images once and then take further action on
this issue.

Thank You.
