Package: geoip-bin
Version: 1.6.9-4
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

The man page of geoiplookup says

  -v     Lists the date and build number for the GeoIP datafile(s).

But the command simply prints the "usage string" with this option.

 % geoiplookup -v
Usage: geoiplookup [-h] [-?] [-d custom_dir] [-f custom_file] [-v] [-i] [-l]
<ipaddress|hostname>

Either the man page should be updated or the behavior of geoiplookup should be
fixed accordingly. Could you please check?

thanks
Kamaraju S. Kusumanchi
