>Description:
geoipupdate.sh provided from net/GeoIP, produced from files/geoipupdate.sh.in,
don't update GeoIP.dat atomically. It clears original file by using shell
redirect (>), then download and gunzip to it.
So, if other process try to use it while updating, the process will see broken data.
>How-To-Repeat:
run /usr/local/bin/geoipupdate.sh as root
>Fix:
fetch GeoIP.dat.gz and gunzip it as filename other than GeoIP.dat in the same file system, then rename(2) to GeoIP.dat.
