Package: whohas
Version: 0.29-0.2
Followup-For: Bug #676471

The issue is not only in URL which should now be (I guess)

my $baseurl = "http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/";;

instead of original

my $baseurl = "http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/";;

but also that I guess before it was not just an Apache index but some
differently formatted table, so parsing of this index doesn't work atm.  I
guess some other function for some distribution already has functionality to
parse the regular Apache's index.  So it would be need to reuse that code or
even to come up with a generic function to parse apache indexes reliably and
avoid code duplication.

I hope that someone verse in Perl could tackle this issue.

Also, Philipp, I wonder if you have any further plans for development of
whohas?  it is a very nice tool but it needs consistent maintenance.  I
wondered if you would be willing to making your VCS of it (if any available)
public... if you do not have any -- may be we could then base it on the Debian
packaging one and grow it into a community project (push it to github for easy
workflow to accept patches etc)
