Package: geoip-database-contrib
Version: 1.13
Severity: wishlist

The cron job installed by geoip-database-contrib mails the full wget output,
including the (long) download progress.  This seems a bit excessive.  I see
two options:

1) The cron entry sends stdout to /dev/null, but not stderr.  It could send
both to /dev/null.

2) Pass an argument to the update script to tell it to be quiet, which it
would in turn pass to wget.
