You didn't have to do 1., simply installing DBD::SQLite (cpanm DBD::SQLite) builds SQLite for you: "DBD::SQLite is a Perl DBI driver for SQLite, that includes the entire thing in the distribution. So in order to get a fast transaction capable RDBMS working for your perl project you simply have to install this module, and nothing else.". From there it's a case of installing the app (cpanm App::geoip), and creating a config file with the details as specified. So the following steps:
- Read and understand the module documentation.
- Build SQLite and the perl module DBD::SQLite: cpanm DBD::SQLite.
- Install geoip: cpanm App::geoip.
- Create your config file as specified in the documentation.
- Run the app and create the database: geoip --fetch --DB=dbi:SQLite:dbname=geoip.db
I've made a note to review the module docs in light of this thread, and if I can come up with any improvement I'll raise with Tux and see what he thinks.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
