Rocky 9.1, all updates.

# dnf -y install epel-release
Package epel-release-9-4.el9.noarch is already installed.

# dnf -y install geoipupdate
No match for argument: geoipupdate
Error: Unable to find a match: geoipupdate

This isn't my package so I am not speaking for the package maintainer.
Not all of the libraries needed to build geoipupdate are in epel9.
Specifically it wants
  'golang(github.com/cenkalti/backoff/v4)'
  'golang(github.com/gofrs/flock)'
or in rpm terms
  golang-github-cenkalti-backoff
  golang-github-gofrs-flock

This will take longer for a package to get into epel9.
