Description Ville Skyttä 2013-07-02 20:54:14 UTC 
Using xz compressed GeoLiteCity.dat would save about 5 MB, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.devel/181336 and let me know if you'd like me to take care of this for devel.

Comment 1 Ralph Bean 2013-07-09 00:39:45 UTC 
Hi Ville,

Thanks for the patch, but as per the discussion in 968074, I intend to retire the geoip-geolite package as soon as the GeoIP package maintainers are ready.
Comment 2 Ralph Bean 2013-08-20 02:19:11 UTC 
geoip-geolite has been retired from rawhide.  Please use the GeoIP package.
