Description Petr Lautrbach 2022-07-30 09:11:42 UTC
Please consider branching and building GeoIP for epel9.

If GeoIP was in epel9 I could build perl-Geo-IP and awstat could provide geoip module, see bellow.

It looks like rawhide version builds in epel9 just fine - https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=90255583

Thanks.

There is no perl-Geo-IP for epel9
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/perl-Geo-IP

Please branch and build perl-Geo-IP in epel9, thank you.

Will you be able to branch and build perl-Geo-IP in epel9?

--- Additional comment from Petr Lautrbach on 2022-07-29 14:55:29 CEST ---

I made a mistake when I built awstats and didn't check requirements. perl-Geo-IP is not available and requires GeoIP which is not available as well.

I would drop the perl-Geo-IP requirement from awstats so that awastats should work, only geoip module would not be available.

Thanks Petr, I tested awstats-7.8-7.1.el9.noarch.rpm works fine, thank you.

In fact we also needs perl-Geo-IP & GeoIP for awstats usage too, I found GeoIP-1.6.12-7.el8.x86_64.rpm is available in EPEL8, would you please branch perl-Geo-IP & GeoIP for epel9 too?

This is unlikely to happen. See discussions in these tickets:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2091875
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2066787

Is it not possible to use something based on libmaxminddb, which is still supported upstream?

Comment 2 Ming 2022-07-30 16:56:06 UTC
Oh, thanks for suggestion and understood GeoIP is EOL

As awstats doesn't support libmaxminddb, but only GeoIP or GeoIP2, so I just submitted another perl-GeoIP2 request here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2112563
