While following the GeoDjango installation instructions for MacOS, I
encountered the following error regarding `libgeoip`, an alternative name
for `geoip` per the Homebrew Formulae page.
{{{
$ brew install libgeoip
Error: geoip has been disabled because it has an archived upstream
repository! It was disabled on 2024-12-12.
