+1.4.8 improves ipv6 supports and fixes a security pb (Fix possible
+directory traversal weakness in geoipupdate-pureperl.pl with malicious
+update server), nothing too risky and no api breakage so I'm
+submitting it to infra.
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> Consequence: it doesn't break our downloads, however, from the Web
