mod_geoip2 has been replaced by mod_maxminddb, and should be so in ports as
well.

The libmaxminddb requirement is already in ports.

It seems like mod_geoip2 stopped getting updates in 2015, has been labeled =
as
=E2=80=9Clegacy=E2=80=9D, and support documentation was removed in early 20=
16.

The main advantage of mod_maxminddb is IPv6 support and faster lookups.=20
