1. Start netcfg like:

[root@borg /etc]# netcfg

Red Hat Linux netcfg 2.12
Copyright (C) 1996 Red Hat Software

2. Click on hosts
3. Delete some of the hostnames and you get:

Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/lib/python/tkinter/Tkinter.py", line 502, in __call__
    return apply(self.func, args)
  File "/usr/lib/rhs/netcfg/netcfg.py", line 421, in removeEntry
    del self.G.EHosts[item]
  File "/usr/lib/rhs/python/Conf.py", line 292, in __delitem__
    del self.vars[varname]
KeyError: 127.0.0.1
[root@borg /etc]# 

Anyone else's getting it?

By the way, why did the upgrade process deleted my /etc/hosts ??
