Package: netsniff-ng
Version: 0.5.7-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

netsniff-ng depends on package "libgeoip1" but not on "geoip-database", so a
 # ashunt -i eth0 -N -E -H netsniff-ng.org
 ashunt 0.5.7
 Error Opening file /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat
 Error Opening file /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPCity.dat
 Cannot open GeoIP database! Wrong path?!
fails.

After installing "geoip-database" the "city" is still missing, e. g.
 # flowtop
 Error Opening file /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPCity.dat
 Cannot open GeoIP database!

It seems that there's a "GeoLite City" database available on
http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite (License CC-SA).
Could this be included in package "geoip-database" too?

Thank you very much.

Regards,
Edi

PS:
I haven't tested if the successor of "ashunt" in "netsniff-ng 0.5.8-next",
namely "astraceroute" requires these two databases too.
