The so-called "legacy" database format used by libGeoIP has been discontinued by MaxMind, and is only available for paying customers: https://blog.maxmind.com/2018/01/02/discontinuation-of-the-geolite-legacy-databases/ For that reason, net/GeoIP has been removed quite some time ago: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=493168 And the free (as in no payment required) GeoLite2 databases have seen some licensing/handling changes, too: https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-using-geolite2-databases/ Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
