nonexistent dependency

Hi Dagobert,

I understand a little more: gwhois is a perl scritp, thus it requires 
that certain perl module to work. In turn I am unable to build that perl 
module for a variety of reasons.

But what is my original intent? remove gnulinks. Now since any new app 
needs to provde the equivalent link itself, do I really need to rebuild 
gwhois? It is most probably broken.

look here:

gwhois-4.7.10-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

It is so old it comes from solaris 5.8? On 5.10
http://www.opencsw.org/packages/CSWgwhois/

shows no reverse dependencies. Perhaps it is for now a safe wish to lest 
it "rest"? Ir remains there, just without a gwhois -> whois link.
