* Package name : geoipupdate Version : 2.1.0 Upstream Author : MaxMind, Inc. * URL : https://github.com/maxmind/geoipupdate * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : MaxMind GeoIP/GeoIP2 database updates The GeoIP Update program performs automatic updates of GeoIP2 and GeoIP Legacy binary databases, as supplied by MaxMind. These are typically paid products; for the free GeoLite databases, the packages geoip-database or geoip-database-contrib can be installed instead. This package replaces the "geoipupdate" functionality that used to be part of the geoip-bin package but was removed starting with 1.6.0, following upstream's split of the packages. The geoip-bin maintainer, Patrick Matthäi, is already aware of the plans for this ITP. Compared to geoip-bin, this will add GeoIP2 support, as supported by libmaxminddb, #741199. Finally, since the only purpose of this package is to fetch paid, binary databases from MaxMind, it will uploaded to the contrib section of the archive.
