Would be very grateful if you can try it out and let me know if it needs more work before I send an sr to the devel project.
Thanks, but I don't know how to download an rpm from there :-?
I suppose it is:

Hi, that page should show a "Download packages" link (near the right edge of the page) from where you can click on "Grab the binaries directly" and get it that way too. Indeed, that leads to the same link you have used, but gets you there with less guess-work.
Ahhem, now I see it. I told FF to search for "download" ;.) https://software.opensuse.org//download.html?project=home%3Abadshah400%3Abranches%3Anetwork%3Autilities&package=ipcalc
I installed that one, and it works. I don't have a test suite to check it fully, but it seems to work. It supports some switches the old version did not have, like "-i" (which is why I noticed the version was old).
Great, thanks for the checks. I run most of the checks when building already, except for four tests which require access to the network (can't access the network from obs workers).
I notice that the "--geoinfo" option does not produce output, but it would surprise me if it actually worked.
This doesn't work because it relies on non-free GeoIP data, which you can nonetheless install on individual systems by following the procedure outlined here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/geoipupdate/RE... See also Bengt Gördén's message in this thread.
Yes, I figured it would be something of the sort.
Might be worthwhile to package the free GeoIP data from https://db-ip.com/ and then to patch ipcalc to use these, but that's probably for later.
I heard it is problematic, reading from other discussions about geoip on the lists. I can't explain what the problem are, didn't pay enough attention to memorize it. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
