Since there is no maintainer for this package anymore, i created a package which uses systemd.timer and a systemd.service file to update the geoip-database. I think it should replace this package.

Hi,
your package has a bug. Your cron.weekly script doesn't work (it doesn't get executed by run-parts).
Command: ls -l /etc/cron.weekly/
Output:
-----------

-rwxr--r-- 1 root root 753 Jan 31 2013 geoip-update.sh
-----------
Command: run-parts --test -v /etc/cron.weekly/

To fix this, just remove the file extension.
Command: ls -l /etc/cron.weekly/
