[Bug 1070194] Re: command-not-found does not suggest 'whois' package

[Brandon Perry]

Hi, I have run into this as well. whois does not recommend the whois
package when it is not installed.

bperry at w00den-pickle:~$ whois wut.tld
No command 'whois' found, did you mean:
 Command 'rwhois' from package 'socks4-clients' (universe)
 Command 'jwhois' from package 'jwhois' (universe)
 Command 'cwhois' from package 'asused' (universe)
 Command 'gwhois' from package 'gwhois' (universe)
whois: command not found
