Folks,
The license for python-GeoIP has been changed to LGPL from GPLv2 in
1.2.2 (which I've just built for rawhide)
As far as I'm aware there's nothing in the repositories that requires
it, however I'm aware that there's a couple of projects using it (mirror
management comes to mind). Let me know if there's an issue with this
that I'm not aware of :-)
MirrorManager is happy with this change, in fact, I requested MaxMind
to relicense it exactly so MirrorManager could make use of it.
Thanks for fixing up the package.
