Any ideas? I'm not a whois expert by far (anyone have a link to a decent tutorial handy?), but on I'm on ~amd64 here, so have whois-4.7.20 (which is keyworded ~amd64) merged, and that whois query returned what looked like valid data to me, here. One thing I can say, however, is that the emul-linux-x86-baselibs has nothing to do with it, since it's 32-bit and wouldn't even load in the process space of a 64-bit whois process. 32-bit and 64-bit processes and libraries simply don't mix, the whole reason the 32-bit emul-linux-x86-* and -bin packages are necessary in the first place. (A very few packages, including gcc/glibc/sandbox, compile separate code and normally separate files for each bitness, but they are special cases.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
