A clean package, builds fine in mock on i386 and x86_64.  However, I don't think
the name is proper.  By my understanding of the naming guidelines, your package
should be python-GeoIP.

rpmlint says:
W: python-geoip doc-file-dependency /usr/share/doc/python-geoip-1.2.1/test.py
/usr/bin/python
W: python-geoip doc-file-dependency
/usr/share/doc/python-geoip-1.2.1/test_city.py /usr/bin/python
W: python-geoip doc-file-dependency
/usr/share/doc/python-geoip-1.2.1/test_org.py /usr/bin/python
W: python-geoip doc-file-dependency
/usr/share/doc/python-geoip-1.2.1/test_region.py /usr/bin/python

This is the rpm dependency generator picking up a /usr/bin/python dependency
from the executable scripts marked %doc.  In this case I believe the added
dependency is just redundant since python is required anyway and there's no
prohibition against executable documentation that I can fine, but if you want to
quiet rpmlint, just chmod -x the files.

Note also that three of the example files will not work at all with the (free)
GeoIP package in Extras.  I don't think this is a blocker, but it may generate
bug reports.
