1.26 May 19th 2005
- Fixed segfault issue if non-resolvable domain name is
passed to region_by_addr or region_by_name
- Added support for GEOIP_INDEX_CACHE - which just caches

in faster lookups than GEOIP_STANDARD, but less memory usage than
GEOIP_MEMORY_CACHE
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

This module a simple file-based database. This database simply contains IP
blocks as keys, and countries as values. The data contains all public IP
addresses and should be more complete and accurate than reverse complete
COMPLETE and accurate than reverse DNS lookups.
This module can be used to automatically select the geographically closest
mirror, or to analyze your web server logs to determine the countries of
your visitors.
