IP::Country allows fast lookups of IP addresses and their corresponding
countries based on available regional NIC data.
Although the country of assignment will probably be the country associated
with a large ISP rather than the client herself, this is probably good
enough for most log analysis applications, and under test has proved to be as
accurate as reverse-DNS and WHOIS lookup.
Cannot be in fedora as the database needed is not exactly free. RIPE, ARIN etc.
rules apply, thus it's destined to be in -nonfree

A few initial comments:
* The %files section for the -utils subpackage needs a %defattr
* There are lots of "dot files" in the distribution that look to me to be
MacOS resource forks; I suspect they could be removed in %prep without any
detriment to the package.
* Is a separate -utils package really justified? It's substantially smaller
than the main package and only pulls in one more additional dependency
(perl-Geography-Countries) which itself is a small module.
Generally looks like a regular perl module package so it should be an easy
review.

The util package contains the scripts necessary to generate a new database.
This is basically not needed for normal utilization which is why I put it into
a second package.
The mac stuff should be easyily deleted.

database.
This is basically not needed for normal utilization which is why I put it into
a second package.
I appreciate that but wonder if it's really worth it? What would be the
expectation of someone installing the main package? Usually perl modules are
only split into subpackages along the module boundaries, e.g. perl-Net-DNS and
perl-Net-DNS-Resolver, where the latter subpackage provides
perl(Net::DNS::Resolver), which pulls in significantly more dependencies than
the main package.
It's not a blocker though, so it's up to you.
Do a package with the dot files removed and I'll do a full review.

Ping?
Thanks for the ping. Forgot about that.
http://home.bawue.de/~ixs/perl-IP-Country/perl-IP-Country-2.26-2.fc7.src.rpm
and http://home.bawue.de/~ixs/perl-IP-Country/perl-IP-Country.spec are updated
according to your suggestions.
About the package split: The usecase for the package is to enable country
lookup for spamassassin as an additional feature. Most people will never use it
for manual lookups or even rebuilding the database. Thus I considered the split
as I remember it being done for some other perl packages in (then) Core.

rpmlint output:
perl-IP-Country.src: W: mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 1, tab: line
26)
perl-IP-Country-utils.noarch: W: spurious-executable-perm
/usr/share/doc/perl-IP-Country-utils-2.26/dbmScripts/whois_filenames
perl-IP-Country-utils.noarch: W: doc-file-dependency
/usr/share/doc/perl-IP-Country-utils-2.26/dbmScripts/whois_filenames /bin/bash
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 3 warnings.
review items:
- rpmlint not clean; mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs is easy fix, other
complaints can be ignored as it's reasonable to ship executable
documentation and an additional dependency on /bin/bash is nothing to
worry about
- package and spec file names are fine
- package meets packaging guidelines
- license is OK (same as perl), upstream matches package
- no distributed detached license file to include
- spec file written in English and is legible
- source tarball matches upstream for content and timestamp
- package builds successfully in mock for rawhide.x86_64
- buildreqs fine
- no locale data, shared or static libraries, devel files to worry about
- package not intended to be relocatable
- directory ownership is fine
- no duplicate files
- no permissions problems, %defattr present and correct
- %clean section present and correct
- %install section cleans buildroot properly too
- macro usage is consistent
- code, not content
- no large docs
- docs don't affect runtime
- not a GUI app, no desktop file needed
- no filename encoding problems
- package appears to function correctly
- no scriptlets
- subpackage dependency is fine
- only file dependencies are /bin/bash and /usr/bin/perl (OK)
TODO:
Fix spec to use spaces or tabs but not both, as per rpmlint complaint.
Feel free to do this after import.
I APPROVE perl-IP-Country-2.26-2
