The old GeoIP C library had its end of support date at May 2022 but for a while was still shipped for many distributions. At this point though, the EPEL repository that shipped the GeoIP library for RHEL-based operating systems, has removed it from their repositories for "Enterprise Linux 9":  Therefor builds using the bundled spec file fail on EL9 installations. The suggested change is to add an RPM build option `--with geoip2` that when specified will build just the `geoip2` module for the `kamailio-geoip` RPM subpackage. This build option is not enabled by default, unless the build is running on a RHEL 9 based OS - in which case it is set as the default, because otherwise trivial builds break. To revert to the older behavior in RHEL 9 based OSs (and assuming you have the required unsupported library installed correctly) one will need to set both `--without geoip2 --with geoip`.
