| Subject: | Query times out |
I use RPSLTool, which in turn uses Net::Whois::RIPE in persistent
connection mode.
When querying whois.radb.net or whois.altdb.net for non-existent
objects, the server's response is not correctly recognized by
Net::Whois::RIPE::Object's parser, and the connection thus hangs until
it times out.
The attached patch fixes this problem by modifying the regex to also
recognize
"% No entries found for the selected source(s)."
as an error.
