Source: obantoo Severity: normal The current version of BLZ.txt in the package dates from 2015, which means that checks for new BLZs and IBANs based on them will fail (e.g. 59020400). While the Deutsche Bundesbank makes available updated BLZ.txt files for free on their website, obantoo uses the extended version ("erweiterte Bankleitzahlendatei"), which is only available with an account on their Extranet[1]. I have applied for an account, but have not yet received an answer. However, a recent version of BLZ.txt has been added by the Hibiscus author and can be extracted from [2].
I prepared a patch based on [2], but the resulting diff is 6 MB in size - which is suboptimal. I do not have a really good proposal on how to move forward here, but given that an updated BLZ.txt is published every quarter, it seems suboptimal to put it into the JAR file: 1) This makes it unneccessarily difficult to find the file and replace it with a local version. 2) It requires a new release of the software when it reality there were no code changes and only a data update.
