Fix this: GeoLite2-Country-CSV_20180905$ /usr/lib/xtables-addons/xt_geoip_build Use of uninitialized value $dir in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib/xtables-addons/xt_geoip_build line 59. Couldn't open list country names Do not rely on any directory names (they change). Use the current directory as the default source directory, similar to the older xt_geoip_build (well, *.csv was passed as arguments).

.SH Description
|
|
.PP
|
|
xt_geoip_build is used to build packed raw representations of the range
|
|
database that the xt_geoip module relies on. Since kernel memory is precious,
|
|
much of the preprocessing is done in userspace by this very building tool. One
|
|
file is produced for each country, so that no more addresses than needed are
|
|
required to be loaded into memory. The ranges in the packed database files are
|
|
also ordered, as xt_geoip relies on this property for its bisection approach to
|
|
work.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Since the script is usually installed to the libexec directory of the
|
|
xtables-addons package and this is outside $PATH (on purpose), invoking the
|
|
script requires it to be called with a path.
