Subject: Unable to resolve hostname containing underscore
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2014 13:27:13 +0200
To: bug-NetAddr-IP [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Francesco Schiavarelli <grankio [...] gmail.com>
Hello, NetAddr::IP::Lite won't resolve hostnames containing the underscore character. I know that per IETF RFCs underscores are not allowed within hostname, but they should be allowed in domain names (see this Wikipedia page <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname#Restrictions_on_valid_host_names>). Given that: - every other piece of GNU software I've been working with is tolerant in respect to the aforementioned restriction - underscores should be allowed in domain names I'm asking if you are willing to accept upstream the attached patch that does not prevent NetAddr from working when instantiated with hostname containing underscores. thank you regards
