How does this compare with libgeo-ipfree-perl we currently have in the archive? I guess maybe libgeo-ip-perl's license is (or was?) not GPL/Artistic? (maybe it requires non-free data) From libgeo-ipfree-perl's README: | Geo/IPfree version 0.2 | ====================== | | Look up country of IP Address. This module make this off-line and the | database of IPs is free. | | Take a look in CPAN for updates of the DB... This last line puzzles me a bit, specially as newest upstream version is four years old already. BTW, I'm Cc:ing Gustavo, as README.Debian reads: | libgeo-ipfree-perl for Debian | ----------------------------- | | It is a experimental package to be used only at RITS | (www.rits.org.br). | | Feel free to use outside, but don't report bugs to Debian bug tracking | system, contact the maintainer. | | -- Gustavo Franco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Mon, 28 Jun 2004 16:09:12 -0300 Given this package was shipped in Sarge: Gustavo, should it be removed from Etch? (it works fine for me, I have it installed and use it regularly) Maybe the licensing of the non-free database has changed?
