[heroes] heads up: public geolite2 db downloads restricted
Hi, MaxMind requires signing up for an account in order to keep using the geolite2 databases (successor of the discontinued GeoIP): https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-usi... I suppose several openSUSE services rely on that so some action may be required here. Looks like we do have a 'geoipupdate' package. It's supposed to support downloading the files after acquiring a free license key. I'm courious if that works if anyone wants to try.. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer HRB 36809 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner@opensuse.org
