I am almost finished with preparing the tools for geo-blocking and geo-routing
at the firewall for submission to the FreeBSD ports.
I created a man file for the tools, see: https://cyclaero.github.io/ipdb/, and I added
the recent suggestions on rule number/action code per country code, namely, I changed the
formula for the x-flag to the suggestion of Ian (value = offset + ((C1 - 'A')*26 + (C2 -
'A'))*10), and I added the idea of directly assigning a number to a country code in the
argument for the t-flag ("CC=nnnnn:...").
Furthermore, I removed the divert filter daemon from the Makefile. The source
is still on GitHub, though, and can be re-vamped if necessary.
Now I am going to prepare the Makefile for the port.
I just submitted a PR asking to add the new port 'sysutils/ipdbtools'.

I needed to change the name of the geoip tool, because GeoIP® is a registered
trademark of MaxMind, Inc., see www.maxmind.com. The name of the tool is now
'ipup' = abbreviated form of IP geo location table generation and look- UP ,
that is without the boring middle part :-D
Hmm I'd have gone for geotable. ipup sounds like a young dog produced
by Apple.
(wonder if one can change the name of a port)
Those, who used geoip already in some scripts, please excuse the inconvenience
of needing to change the name.
With the great help of Julian, I was able to improve the man file and the
latest version can be read online:

Best regards
