I just submitted a PR asking to add the new port 'sysutils/ipdbtools'. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D211744 I needed to change the name of the geoip tool, because GeoIP=C2=AE is a = registered trademark of MaxMind, Inc., see www.maxmind.com. The name of = the tool is now 'ipup' =3D abbreviated form of IP geo location table = generation and look- UP , that is without the boring middle part :-D Those, who used geoip already in some scripts, please excuse the = inconvenience of needing to change the name. With the great help of Julian, I was able to improve the man file and = the latest version can be read online: https://cyclaero.github.io/ipdb/ Best regards Rolf
