FWIW, we have the patch for Trusty, and I can test it, but I know that Trusty will reach EOL in less than four months. I will leave it at your discretion as to whether to go forward with the update for Trusty. Also, I thanked Brian for getting the Xenial update into Proposed, but forgot to thank

Sorry for the delay, I didn't see the previous comments. I've sponsored to Xenial now, Artful is not supported anymore so marking that one as wontfix. Unsure it makes sense to do an upload to trusty at this point ** Changed in: ubuntu-geoip (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

Adding test case here: 1) Install patches / patched package 2) Confirm that the 'geoip url' is set to a correct 'https' value, and that this value is set as the default: `$ gsettings get com.ubuntu.geoip geoip-url` should display `https://geoip.ubuntu.com/lookup` `$ gsettings reset

It appears as though the servers may have been updated to also serve this over https (previously, https didn't work at the Ubuntu geoip url), but the default value for desktops is to use the http value, and the defaults should be updated Current values: $ gsettings reset com.ubuntu.geoip
