Pre-built package for Ubuntu? #16

Closed mjwillson closed 9 years ago

mjwillson commented 10 years ago

Hello

Is an up-to-date version of this tool available anywhere as an Ubuntu package? If not, any chance you guys could create binary packages for Ubuntu and release in a PPA? Having to configure and build it on the server in order to install isn't exactly ideal as it requires having a build toolchain installed, and it also makes it fiddly to update it to the latest version when new releases are made.

Previously I've been able to use a geoipupdate installed via an existing Ubuntu package (geoip-bin), but this doesn't seem to work any more for me after signing up for the GeoIP2 City, I'm guessing they're no longer maintained by you guys?

Cheers -Matt

Versions of geoipupdate prior to 2.0, like the one in Ubuntu, don't support the GeoIP2 databases. There has been some talk of doing a PPA, but I'll bring it up again. Thanks for your feedback!

OK, cheers for the info. Installing via a PPA would make this a much smoother process :)

We have a PPA now at https://launchpad.net/~maxmind/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/
