Please always send the full URLs to the files to upload and Igor is
right, it's your responsibility to change the setup.hint file.

I haven't changed the hint file in forever.   I didn't think maintainers
needed to after the first release.  I just assumed christopher or corrinna
did that in the main copy for updates.

I don't think I'll need to worry about compiling 4.6.6 against 1.3.22.  The
upgrade isn't anything magical, so no one will suffer if they stick with
1.3.x and the old whois.

Mark,

You'll need to set the packages up as test packages yourself, in your
setup.hint.  You could probably do it by simply adding the

prev: 4.5.15-1
curr: 4.5.17-1
test: 4.6.6-1

lines to your setup.hint, but I may have missed something.
Also, it looks like you're using this as an opportunity to upgrade the
package to a new upstream release, as well.  You may want to first release
the new version compiled against 1.3.22, and then release 4.6.6-2 compiled
against 1.5.0.  Again, it's your choice as the maintainer.
Igor
