No way to make it work then I gather?

For those looking for the latest GeoIP.dat (from GeoLite2's mmdb format), these people have helpfully done all the work already.

https://stackoverflow.com/a/54700384/253139 has all the background info. For the .dat file on its own head to https://www.miyuru.lk/geoiplegacy - try the combination IPv4/IPv6 'Country' file (maps IP blocks to countries). I'd grab the IPv4 file if that doesn't work properly however I just tried the combo file and it appears to be happy with that. I'm running the official Deluge package on a Synology, the updated file appeared to start working without needing to reload the daemon or restart the service.

I dropped the extracted maxmind.dat file into a share on my volume1 then amended the path accordingly in Preferences -> Other, it appears to be working fine. There's been quite a lot of IP block changes since GeoLite v1 was last updated, worth updating if you care about accuracy.

Hello,

For ubuntu
I managed this in the following way:
(I used deluge from python package manager)

Code: Select all

# install /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat and geoIP headers
sudo apt install geoip-database libgeoip-dev

# use pipx to isolated deluge from rest of the system, but you can use just pip
py_ver=`python -c "from sys import version_info as vi; print(f'{vi[0]}.{vi[1]}')"`
sudo apt install python${py_ver}-venv

pip install pipx
pipx install deluge

# install libtorrent and GeoIP python packages to deluge virtual env
pipx inject deluge libtorrent GeoIP

Does this work for you? I downloaded GeoLite2-Country from here but it doesn't seem to be working. Using Unraid and Deluge 2.1.1, updated it in my settings > other to point to /config/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb but no joy
