@dreieck You need to install perl-text-csv-xs. It is there in makedepends(). I wonder how makepkg did not complain to you. It should have shown you this error:
==> Missing dependencies: -> perl-text-csv-xs
About geoip.license.key, it can not be put in git or source as it will vary for each user. i.e. each use will have own key. However I have fixed the error message and it will be gone in next update. But package should build just fine even if there was "No such file" error.
Build fails for me:
==> Starting package()...
Using DB-IP GeoIP database
Can't locate Text/CSV_XS.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Text::CSV_XS module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl /usr/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.32/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.32/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl) at /tmp/xtables-geoip-db/src/xt_geoip_build line 13.

Thanks for maintaining!
Your PKGBUILD does a source geoip.license.key. But this file is not provided by your package, and also it is not mentioned that it is needed in the source-array. So there is an error message /[...]/xtables-geoip-db/PKGBUILD: line 16: geoip.license.key: No such file or directory
So can you please add a check and only source it if it is available (if [ -r "${srcdir}/geoip.license.key" ]; then source "${srcdir}/geoip.license.key"; fi), or add it to the source-array as a required file?
Thanks for maintaining!
Package now uses DB-IP GeoIP database. If you still want to use MaxMind GeoLite2 database then read PKGBUILD for details. (needs license key from MaxMind)
Quote from PKGBUILD:
#create a file named geoip.license.key which contains MaxMind License key in following format:
_maxmind_key=XXXX
Where XXXX is your GeoIP license key, which is available for free from Maxmind.
After that you can build the package normally.
Hello!
There is error while building this package: ERROR: Failure while downloading https://download.maxmind.com/app/geoip_download?edition_id=GeoLite2-Country-CSV&suffix=zip&license_key=
When I go to this link I get: Invalid license key
And on link https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/ I read this message: Due to upcoming data privacy regulations, we are making significant changes to how you access free GeoLite2 databases starting December 30, 2019.
As described here https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-using-geolite2-databases/ It is required to sign up for a MaxMind account and create license key to download this file.
Those using nftables may try this AUR package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nftables-geoip-db/
See README file of that package for details. Thank you.
