Dear Maintainer,
Running anything that imports whois gives six lines of warnings:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whois/_3_adjust.py:77: SyntaxWarning: invalid
escape sequence '\+'
s = re.sub('(\+[0-9]{2}):([0-9]{2})', '\\1\\2', s)
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whois/_3_adjust.py:78: SyntaxWarning: invalid
escape sequence '\ '
s = re.sub('(\ #.*)', '', s)
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whois/_3_adjust.py:92: SyntaxWarning: invalid
escape sequence '\+'
tmp = re.findall('\+([0-9]{2})00', s)
This is because since Python 3.12, Python complains about strings that have
things like backslashes in them that aren't string escapes.
The fix is very easy, just put r in front of each string, e.g.
s = re.sub(r'(\+[0-9]{2}):([0-9]{2})', '\\1\\2', s)
Here's a patch that does that for the three lines that are printing warnings:
