reassign #728307 geoip-bin
tag #728307 + wontfix
thanks


Would it be possible to have a little more information on why this has
been marked as wontfix ?

Thanks.


see my next mail :)

Sorry for the ping-pong, but I'd really like to know the exact root of
the issue, why is this a wontfix ... upstream db is in ISO-8859, but
IMHO it could be display in locale dependant output (eg utf8).


Hi,

upstream wrote the following:
<quote>
geoiplookup has the -l flag to flip between iso-8859-1 and utf8. The default is utf8. Guessing the charset seems wrong for pipe operations and we can’t convert the output into all possible locale settings. Only utf8 and iso-8859-1 is supported by libgeoip. I think this users issue is resolved.
