Comment (by isis):

 One way to fix this is to add the geoip6 file as `Data/Tor/geoip6`, which
 should probably be done somewhere in the gitian descriptors, and then
 adding in to the torrc in TorLauncher. For the latter TorLauncher part,
 I've written [https://github.com/isislovecruft/tor-
 launcher/commit/91307c63be9c6c47b17000d6d47c7a80328b175e a patch].

 gk noted on IRC, however, that this adds extra startup time while tor
 parses the geoip6 file, which not all users need. Not sure what to do
 here.
