   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whois/+bug/943502/+attachment/2795493/+files/backport_changelogupdate_lp943502.debdiff

** Changed in: whois (Ubuntu)
     Assignee: Chris J Arges (christopherarges) => Canonical Server Team (canonical-server)

** Changed in: whois (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ Fixes issues using whois with .hr/.sx/.pe TLDs. In addition updates query format for IPs when accessing ARIN.
+ 
+ [Development Fix]
+ These issues were fixed in 5.0.14 of whois.
+ 
+ [Stable Fix]
+ Since most of the fixes are covered in updating from 5.0.11 to 5.0.14, a backport of these version provides all fixes.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1) whois google.hr (works on precise, not on oneiric)
+ 2) whois registry.sx google.com.pe
+ 3) whois 74.125.113.102
+    if we use this command in precise we see that whois adds "n +" to the query, while
+    in oneiric it doesn't add that.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Most of the changes are fairly minimal, although any changes to mkpasswd should be investigated.
+
