Fedora Project
Updated geoipupdate to 2.4.0 in F-26 and Rawhide:
geoipupdate now checks that the database directory is writeable: if it is not, it reports the problem and aborts
geoipupdate now acquires a lock when starting up to ensure only one instance may run at a time: a new option, 'LockFile', exists to set the file to use as a lock ('.geoipupdate.lock' in the database directory by default)
geoipupdate now prints out additional information from the server when a download request results in something other than HTTP status 2xx; this provides more information when the API does not respond with a database file
${datarootdir}/GeoIP is now created on 'make install' (GH#29)
Previously, a variable named 'ERROR' was used, which caused issues building on Windows (GH#36)
