Attachments: Ebuild for GeoIP 1.3.0

Description Brian O'Kelley 2003-10-12 22:19:40 UTC
Please find attached geoip-1.3.0.ebuild.

I did not make any changes to the ebuild file itself; this is simply a version change on the underlying library.

The 1.3.0 release of libGeoIP appears to be bug fixes only - the developer (TJ Mather) is going to email a change log. I know that it fixes a couple of minorish bugs - I'll post more information if/when I get it. In the interim, this release works great on my x86 systems.

Ebuild for GeoIP 1.3.0

No changes from 1.2.1 - just changes the version
Comment 2 Brian O'Kelley 2003-10-12 23:38:26 UTC
From developer:

----------------------------------
API Change for 1.3.x and above users for GeoIP Region database GeoIPRegion.region
is no longer a pointer but an in-structure array so test the first byte of
region == 0 rather testing if the region pointer is NULL.
----------------------------------
Comment 3 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-12 23:49:54 UTC
i think this belongs to the net-analyzer category, not in dev-libs

Version bumpage.. Thanks Brian O'Kelley for making me aware of this.

Heinrich,
It's an API with some utils, I dont think net-analyzer/ is the right place
for such a thing, however if you really feel it should be there please make
a case for it on this bug.
