Can you try Geo-IP-1.27? Otherwise, I would try installing geoip again (the dep for Geo-IP) - I just installed both fresh without issue.

The same problem with Geo-IP-1.27. Recompiling geoip did not help. I upgraded gcc and glibc to the latest version (3.4.6) and recompiled geoip and Geo-IP again, but it didn't help either. :-(

[Comment 3 Vlad Berditchevskiy 2006-06-29 11:37:46 UTC]

I could solve this problem by upgrading geoip to 1.3.14!

[Comment 4 Milton YATES 2006-07-02 03:47:16 UTC]

this IS a bug in dev-libs/geoip-1.3.12.ebuild
Just as it is in the dev-libs/geoip-1.3.14.ebuild:
 * 'append-flags -fPIC' should be added before the econf call to src_compile().
 * 'inherit flag-o-matic' should be added for the previous to work.

(The component of this bug should be changed to Ebuild)

[Comment 5 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2006-07-03 06:30:10 UTC]

netmon folks,

Can you confirm this is more a bug with dev-libs/geoip? Thanks!

[Comment 6 Markus Ullmann (RETIRED) 2007-02-01 19:19:45 UTC]

yup, fixed with recent versions :)
