What is the state of this PR?
+1 This patch would be really nice if it was included or committed to the ports tree. Anyone?
Please see also Bug 189618. This doesn't update GeoIPv6.dat atomically, ie. breaks data when starting update. To avoid this, download data as other file, then replace the old data.
Yes you are right, I didn't try to fix anything beside absence of IPv6 data in the same way as IPv4 data is fetched. So please anybody commit the patch in Bug 189618
The maintainer of net/GeoIP has changed in Jun 12, but assignee these Bugs is still assigned to previous maintainer....
Sorry, I had no idea that this PR was out there! Thanks to Yasuhito FUTATSUKI for assigning it to me! I've committed the patch from But 189618. Thanks to everyone involved for submitting this PR!
