Hi,

I compiled ktorrent with "./configure --enable-geoip" but allways it show at Country : "N/A" (

I tryed it with the 2.0rc1 and the svn version.

What is my mistake ?

There's no need to configure with '--enable-geoip' since it's enabled by default.

Weird thing is that what you get for the country ("N/A") is received from GeoIP code so apparently it should be working but it somehow does not recognize any countries.

Does the file (geoip.dat) exist? It should be somewhere in your $KDEDIR/share/apps/ktorrent

It's in svn checkout and tar.gz at ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/, but not on ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent/

I think you misunderstood me. It's not in your local KDE dir ~/.kde/ but it should be in *global* KDE dir like this: $KDEDIR/share/apps/ktorrent/geoip

On my Dapper it's in this path:

/usr/share/apps/ktorrent/geoip

On SuSE it'll probably be /opt/kde3/share/apps/ktorrent/geoip

Lol i did confused this, i am still in *just out of bed* mode.
Cp the geoip.dat file back in /usr/share/apps/ktorrent/geoip/ works for me.

Thanks all

Code: Select all

$ locate geoip.dat
/home/ldoc/ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/.svn/text-base/geoip.dat.svn-base
/home/ldoc/ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/.svn/prop-base/geoip.dat.svn-base
/home/ldoc/ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/.svn/props/geoip.dat.svn-work
/home/ldoc/ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/geoip.dat

$ cp /home/ldoc/ktorrent/plugins/infowidget/geoip/geoip.dat /usr/share/apps/ktorrent/geoip



now it works

This may work for you but it is still an issue in svn. It seems that

if ENABLE_GEOIP
ktdata_DATA += geoip.dat GeoIP-LICENSE.txt
endif

doesn't really add both files to ktdata_DATA. At least these files never get installed currently. I have tried to locate the error but failed so far. Furthermore I don't see why the flags should be installed if I disable GeoIP. Wouldn't it be easier to exclude the whole subdir if GeoIP is disabled?

It's just an error in the configure.in.in files, I still need to fix it.

OK, this is what happens :
--enable-geoip -> geoip.dat gets installed
--disable-geoip -> geoip.dat does not get installed

This is the correct behavior

Not here (latest SVN, FreeBSD 6.1)

pass --enable-geoip to configure -> geoip.dat does not get installed
pass nothing to configure -> geoip.dat does not get installed

In both cases the db should have been installed.

Why not disable the whole geoip subdir if I don't want geoip? Installing the flags doesn't make sense if ktorrent doesn't use them anyway.

Are you using automake ? I'm using unsermake here, and maybe there is a difference between the two.

Because it is easier to tell people to install one file when they come complaining that they don't see any flags in the infowidget (some distros do not like the database license, the reason why we added this option)

Yes, automake 1.9.6. Apparently that makes the difference, somehow.

Ah, I see.

I will mess around with automake, see where the problem is.

Thanks for fixing this!
