Bug#847619: ITP: libnet-whois-ip-perl -- Lookup whois entries of IP addresses with Perl



Package: wnpp
Owner: Axel Beckert <abe@debian.org>
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : libnet-whois-ip-perl
  Version         : 1.19
  Upstream Author : Ben Schmitz <ben@foink.com>
* URL             : https://metacpan.org/release/Net-Whois-IP
* License         : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : Lookup whois entries of IP addresses with Perl

Net::Whois::IP is a module to do whois lookup of IP addresses. It
should recursively query the various whois providers until it gets
the more detailed information including either TechPhone or
OrgTechPhone by default; however, this is overrideable.

There are already several perl-based whois interfaces in Perl, but this
one is a dependency of Net::Abuse::Utils aka libnet-abuse-utils-perl
which I'm primarily interested in.

The license itself is unfortunately still not documented inside the
upstream tar ball, but in the upstream bug tracking system, see
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=19058#txn-192324

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl
Group.
