jwhois-3.2.3-6.1

IDN support in jwhois, upgrading to jwhois cvs will require libidn-devel as

Comment 1 Miloslav Trmač 2006-09-08 22:14:18 UTC
Sure, after FC6.

Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2006-09-08 22:26:51 UTC
Why after FC6?

Comment 3 Miloslav Trmač 2006-09-08 22:37:34 UTC
FC6t3 is already frozen, and the feature freeze is long past, as you can see at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Core/Schedule

Comment 4 Robert Scheck 2006-09-09 23:41:56 UTC
But pushing it as update for FC5 and FC6 should be possible then, shouldn't it?

Comment 5 Robert Scheck 2006-10-29 23:54:48 UTC
Ping?

Comment 6 Fedora Update System 2006-10-31 19:57:15 UTC
jwhois-3.2.3-8.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2006-10-31 19:57:54 UTC
jwhois-3.2.3-8.fc5 has been pushed for fc5, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 8 Robert Scheck 2006-11-01 11:25:25 UTC
Miloslav, I dunno what you've got checked out, but your output character 
conversion from bug #132362 is missing which is a urgent part of IDN support. 
Finally your config file is never ever from Oct 31 2006, because of e.g. the 
following missing things:

@@ -921,17 +925,10 @@
        "whois\\.denic\\.de" {
                whois-server = "whois.denic.de";
                query-format = "-C UTF-8 -T dn,ace $*";
-               answer-charset = "UTF-8";
        }
        "whois\\.nic\\.ad\\.jp" {
                query-format = "$*/e";
        }

 }

Comment 9 Robert Scheck 2006-11-01 11:30:36 UTC
To make it shorter: Most of the following changelog entry is missing, which 
unfortunately includes the better IPv6 support written by yourself, too.

2006-05-20  Jonas Oberg  <jonas>

        * Added patch to support conversion of whois server output to
        local charset. Fixes Fedora Core bug #132362 (Miloslav Trmac)

        * configure.in: Added check for IPv6-aware inet_pton

        * src/jwhois.c (main): Added support for libidn. (Robert Scheck)

        * src/lookup.c (lookup_host): Added lookup to cidr6 blocks.
        (Miloslav Trmac)

        * example/jwhois.conf: Added cidr6-blocks structure and moved all
        IPv6 addresses to it. (Miloslav Trmac)

        * doc/jwhois.texi: Added documentation for cidr6 support. (Miloslav
        Trmac)


Comment 10 Miloslav Trmač 2006-11-01 19:34:16 UTC
jwhois-3.2.3-idn.patch backports only the IDN support;  I still don't want to
include new config options until they are oficially released upstream.

That's why the answer-charset option and the new IPv6 matching code are not
present and were manually removed from the config file updates.

I think the IDN support is still useful (considering the answer-charset values
in the config file are all equal to the system default);  if you feel otherwise,
the best I can do right now is to drop the updates completely.

Comment 11 Fedora Update System 2006-11-09 16:59:52 UTC
jwhois-3.2.3-8.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 12 Fedora Update System 2006-11-09 17:01:25 UTC
jwhois-3.2.3-8.fc5 has been pushed for fc5, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 13 Robert Scheck 2006-11-09 17:05:30 UTC
Mhm, whatever meens FIXED. Personally I only can agree with you in parts but 
I'll not reopen, because there's no chance to get what I would like to see.
