But Bionic are not released yet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
And Artful are not LTS release type. Effectively meaning Xenial are latest LTS 
release up-to-date and still supported until April 2021.
Does by any chance this can be fixed in currently active LTS release, i.e. 
Xenial? I don't think that would require a lot of efforts to re-compile 
packages with IDN support and push the update. Why this can't be done with 
Xenial?

Title:
  no IDN in nslookup and host

Status in BIND:
  New
Status in bind9 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in iputils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in bind9 package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bind9

  Neither nslookup or host supports IDN. If you try , for example, to
  get the IP for "registrera-domän.se" it fails every time. As the use
  of IDN is increasing I think it would be a good thing if these tools
  supported this.
