Oh excellent thank you for pointing me to the right place! I'll make sure to create an issue there.

You can see an instance of a previous report here https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13037 . It's not very important for the purpose of tor, but you'd be making one of the only embedable geoip database a little more accurate for everyone else Regards, trinity-1686a On Thu, 18 Jan 2024 at 22:08, Martin Gebhardt via tor-relays wrote: Hello, unfortunately this happens more often. you are not alone :-) Am 18.01.2024 um 20:50 schrieb NodNet : I think tor and Tor Project use IPFire's DB for GeoIP lookups, and 198.13.48.219 shows the following: Yes, libloc/location is used. I had the same problem with one or two relays years ago. This was then fixed by a manual override. This is currently also the case with 3 of my relays (37.252.255.135 / 37.252.254.33 / 217.146.2.41) However, I can't explain why. Because the hoster has a geofeed (https://opengeofeed.org/feed/as42473.html) and RIPE also has the correct country information. In any case, it is not so important to me that it is correct in the metrics. But it would be nice. Maybe I'll get round to mentioning it again on the location mailing list soon.

Ah I see it looks like it is up-to-date then if it's showing the same thing. Thanks for that info!
