It has no runtime dependencies beyond the MaxMind library it wraps, making it a self-contained installation\u2014but the bundled data is stale and will not reflect current IP address allocations or geopolitical changes.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last update 2018-07-18), its bundled database is severely outdated, and its license status is unclear. For any production or current geolocation work, use a maintained alternative such as the official MaxMind GeoIP2 library with a current database subscription, or a modern open-source geolocation package. Install only if you are maintaining legacy code that explicitly requires this package."},"id":"maxminddb-geolite2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/maxminddb-geolite2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/maxminddb-geolite2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/maxminddb-geolite2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-07-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"maxminddb-geolite2","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Provides access to the geolite2 database.
