MaxMind and DP-IP.com provide geolocation databases in the MaxMind DB file format format. This Perl module finds or downloads and installs the C library libmaxminddb, which can read MaxMind DB files.
All methods are inherited from Alien::Base.
None.
Requires Alien::Build from CPAN. On Windows, Alien::MSYS needs to be installed manually.

If libmaxminddb and its development files aren't present, the library is fetched from GitHub and built with Alien::Build, which requires the build tools from Alien::MSYS on Windows. If Alien::Build fails to build libmaxminddb, make sure that you have a clean build environment with nothing but Perl and the build tools in your path.
