Add a MANPAGES option. If you're building this from source and don't
want to spend 2 hours on 200 ports, the manpages are the same as the
DOCS. Just use those.
Also, sort plist.
* BREAKING CHANGE: When downloading the free databases without a
MaxMind account, you must either not have `AccountID`, `UserId`,
or `LicenseKey` set in your configuration file or they must be set
to the zero values previously recommended in our documentation. Any
other value will cause an authorization error.
* BREAKING CHANGE: The configuration options `Protocol`,
`SkipPeerVerification`, and `SkipHostnameVerification` are no longer
supported. If they are present in the configuration file, they will
be ignored. HTTPS with peer and hostname verification will be used
on all requests.
* BREAKING CHANGE: The configuration file must have the `AccountID`
or the deprecated `UserId` when downloading a paid database.
Previously, when downloading the GeoIP Legacy Country database, you
were able to only provide the `LicenseKey`.
* IMPORTANT: `geoipupdate-pureperl.pl` has been removed and will no
longer be distributed with `geoipupdate`. This Perl script had known
issues and did not have feature parity with the C implementation. If
you were using the Perl version, we recommend that you switch to the
C version. If you are not able to do this, you may continue using the
Perl version distributed with 2.5.0.
* This program no longer uses the following endpoints:
`/app/update_getipaddr`, `/app/update`, and `/app/update_secure`.
`/geoip/databases/{edition_id}/update` is now used instead.
* Fixed issue in `gu_strnlen()` dereferencing a pointer before checking
that it was in array bounds. Issue found by fcntl.
* We now update the default GeoIP.conf during installation so that
directory paths match build parameters. Previously this config always
said the data directory was under /usr/local/share which was not always
accurate.
* Improve the error checking and display the underlying reason for the
error when possible. Reported by Jonathan Kosgei. GitHub #82.
* Document that the `LockFile` is not removed from the filesystem after
a successful exit from the program. GitHub issue #79.
* Make default configuration directory agree with default installation
directory.
Also, create PREFIX/share/GeoIP, as it's needed with the default
configuration.
Note that conf option names have changed with this release, but the
old names will continue to work.
* Replace use of strnlen() due to lack of universal availability. First
reported by Bill Cole. GitHub issue #71.
* Document the LockFile option in the GeoIP.conf man page. GitHub
issue #64.
* Remove unused base64 library. PR by Mikhail Teterin. GitHub PR #68.
* Add the new configuration option PreserveFileTimes. If set,
the downloaded files will get the same modification times as
their original on the server. Default is 0 (unset).
PR by Rainer Jung. GitHub PR #63.
* Use the correct types when calling curl_easy_setopt(). This fixes
warnings generated by libcurl's typecheck-gcc.h. PR by Michael
Kaufmann. GitHub PR #61.
* In GeoIP.conf, the UserId option was renamed to AccountID and the
ProductIds option was renamed to EditionIDs. The old options will
continue to work, but upgrading to the new names is recommended for
forward compatibility.
* geoipupdate now checks that the database directory is writable.
If it is not, it reports the problem and aborts.
* geoipupdate now acquires a lock when starting up to ensure only
one instance may run at a time. A new option, LockFile, exists to
set the file to use as a lock. By default, LockFile is the file
.geoipupdate.lock in the database directory.
* geoipupdate now prints out additional information from the server
when a download request results in something other than HTTP
status 2xx. This provides more information when the API does not
respond with a database file. In conjunction with changes to the
download service itself, errors such as lacking a subscription no
longer show up with the message "not a valid gzip file".
* ${datarootdir}/GeoIP is now created on make install. Reported by
Antonios Karagiannis. GitHub #29.
* Previously, a variable named ERROR was used. This caused issues
building on Windows. Reported by Gisle Vanem. GitHub #36.
* geoipupdate now uses TCP keep-alive when compiled with cURL 7.25 or
greater.
* Previously, on an invalid gzip file, geoipupdate would output binary data
to stderr. It now displays an appropriate error message.
When using GH_TAGNAME the DISTNAME would have GH_PROJECT and GH_ACCOUNT in
it. When not using GH_TAGNAME it would not have this. Now both cases
will add in the GH_PROJECT and GH_ACCOUNT.
Add special care to ensure that the DISTVERSION is not added in twice. If
a port does GH_TAGNAME=v${PORTVERSION} it will be added in twice though. For
that case DISTVERSIONPREFIX=v should be set and no GH_TAGNAME should be used.
empty() is used rather than (!defined || !${}) to support fmake.
The purpose of setting DISTNAME at all in these cases is to make it more clear
that the distfile is from *GITHUB* and to avoid collisions if a project were
to be renamed or moved. Without adding in GH_PROJECT and GH_ACCOUNT then there
are real risks that collisions on filenames would happen on renamed or moved
projects, which is fairly common. A GITHUB-generated file may not match
a custom-rolled or git-archive-rolled distfile.

Testing done: All USE_GITHUB ports without GH_COMMIT were checksum/fetch/extract/WRKSRC tested.
- Add net/geoipupdate, the formal tool to fetch updates. It is for paid
subscribers. People using the free version should continue using the
geoipupdate.sh script in net/GeoIP.
This program is used to fetch the GeoIP2 and GeoIP databases. It requires
an active GeoIP subscription.
Please see https://www.maxmind.com/en/geolocation_landing for details about
obtaining a subscription.
If you wish to install the free versions of the GeoIP databases, please
use the geoipudate.sh script provided in net/GeoIP.
