  "github_readme_excerpt": "# GeoIP Update\n\nThe GeoIP Update program performs automatic updates of GeoIP and GeoLite binary\ndatabases. CSV databases are _not_ supported.\n\n## Installation\n\nWe provide releases for Linux, macOS (darwin), and Windows. Please see the\n[Releases](https://github.com/maxmind/geoipupdate/releases) tab for the latest\nrelease.\n\nAfter you install GeoIP Update, please refer to our\n[documentation](https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/updating-databases/?lang=en) for\ninformation about configuration.\n\nIf you\u0027re upgrading from GeoIP Update 3.x, please see our\n[upgrade guide](https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/upgrading-geoip-update/?lang=en).\n\n### Installing on Linux via the tarball\n\nDownload and extract the appropriate tarball for your system. You will end up\nwith a directory named something like `geoipupdate_5.0.0_linux_amd64` depending\non the version and architecture.\n\nCopy `geoipupdate` to where you want it to live. To install it to\n`/usr/local/bin/geoipupdate`, run the equivalent of\n`sudo cp geoipupdate_5.0.0_linux_amd64/geoipupdate /usr/local/bin`.\n\n`geoipupdate` looks for the config file `/usr/local/etc/GeoIP.conf` by default.\n\n### Installing on Ubuntu via PPA\n\nMaxMind provides a PPA for recent versions of Ubuntu. To add the PPA to your\nsources, run:\n\n```\n$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:maxmind/ppa\n```\n\nThen install `geoipupdate` by running:\n\n```\n$ sudo apt update\n$ sudo apt install geoipupdate\n```\n\n### Installing on Ubuntu or Debian via the deb\n\nYou can also use the tarball.\n\nDownload the appropriate .deb for your system.\n\nRun `dpkg -i path/to/geoipupdate_5.0.0_linux_amd64.deb` (replacing the version\nnumber and architecture as necessary). You will need to be root. For Ubuntu you\ncan prefix the command with `sudo`. This will install `geoipupdate` to\n`/usr/bin/geoipupdate`.\n\n`geoipupdate` looks for the config file `/etc/GeoIP.conf` by default.\n\n### Installing on RedHat or CentOS via the rpm\n\nYou can also use the tarball.\n\nDownload the appropriate .rpm for your system.\n\nRun `rpm -Uvhi p",
