Description Petr Pisar 2014-05-07 08:40:09 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1094738 +++

Latest upstream release: 5.1.2
Current version/release in Fedora Rawhide: 5.1.1-1.fc21
URL: http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/whois/
----

RHEL-7 delivers 5.1.1. This is request to rebase to 5.1.2.

The upstream changelog is:

whois (5.1.2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Always query whois.nic.$TLD for the "new" gTLDs, because the ICANN
    contract requires that it works.
  * Added the .aw and .zm TLD servers.
  * Updated the .mk, .tc and .vu TLD servers.
  * Added more ASN entries for Japan and Korea.
  * Fixed some invalid ASN and networks entries which would never be
    matched, reported by Henry Stern.
  * mkpasswd ported to Solaris/Dyson, patch courtesy of Igor Pashev.

In addition, the "no" translation has been renamed to "nb" to reflect the provided text is in Norwegian Bokmål.

The whois.nic.$TLD changes touches some code. Therefore the rebase is needed.

We do not ship the mkpasswd tool from this sources. The log entry is irrelevant.
