When installing the package, this database in not installed. The
installation instructions of that package does not a hint on it. I
assume this database being quite large (several GB), since it contains
geo-information. I would not require everybody rebuilding this package
to download that much data.

Sorry, I can't. it is used by geoip2 and this is the reason for
including it.
