Are you sure?
$FILE is the basename of the downloading URL, which is stripped down to
e.g. GeoIPv6.dat.gz.
So the first rm -f $FILE only deletes the compressed databases (which
are not used).
Then:
/usr/bin/wget -t3 -T15 -P /usr/share/GeoIP/ "$url" && \
/bin/gunzip -f /usr/share/GeoIP/$FILE
So gunzip only will get executed (and so on overwriting the database),
if wget was successful (&&).
