OS: Manjaro (x64)
Wireshark version: wireshark-qt 2.6.3-1

In the settings, I do not have the option to select the path for geoip. So it should be? In "Statistics -> Endpoints" "Country" and "City" are not displayed and there is no "Map" button

ls -lh /usr/share/GeoIP
total 118M
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4.5M Apr 10 10:21 GeoIPASNum.dat
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5.3M Apr 10 10:21 GeoIPASNumv6.dat

Does this blog post from @Jasper help?

You should be able to set the directory under Preferences -> Name Resolution -> MaxMind Database Directory.

Can you confirm your version, copy and paste the text info from Help -> About Wireshark -> Wireshark tab?

Your build was made without the MaxMind resolver. From your version info:

Tell me what is the name of the flag for .configure? Should "--with-geoip" remove it?
