That's not what your code does: your code prefers geoip over maxmindb.

Indeed, if both geoip and libmaxminddb are enabled, it will be this
first part of the condition that will be used.

I am still confused by the semantic of those geoip/libgeoip options.
Could you add a comment above this sequence of ifeq/else ifeq/endif, to
clarify what is going on ?
