Package: libgeo-ip-perl
Version: 1.50-1+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear maintainers,
it seems there is an incompatibility between the geoip-database shipped in
Debian and the module Geo::IP.
Trying to do (according to the docs):
use Geo::IP;
my $gi = Geo::IP->new(GEOIP_MEMORY_CACHE);
my $record = $gi->record_by_addr($ip);
results in:
Invalid database type GeoIP Country Edition, expected GeoIP City
Edition, Rev 1
Same with
my $gi = Geo::IP->open( '/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat',
GEOIP_MEMORY_CACHE );
Thanks for your consideration.
Norbert
