Comment (by sisbell):

 Replying to [comment:2 sysrqb]:
 > As mentioned in #30518, we don't use GeoIP on Android. Tor currently has
 the default:
 > {{{
 >   V(GeoIPFile,                   FILENAME,
 >     SHARE_DATADIR PATH_SEPARATOR "tor" PATH_SEPARATOR "geoip"),
 >   V(GeoIPv6File,                 FILENAME,
 >     SHARE_DATADIR PATH_SEPARATOR "tor" PATH_SEPARATOR "geoip6"),
 > }}}

 so tor will only find the GeopIPFiles if they are in
 `/usr/local/share/tor/geoip` (which will never be the case on Android).

 In the case of setting exit nodes, we use the controlConnection. Does
 setting the geoIp file also not work through the control connection? If it
 does work, we can still support geoIp.


 {{{
 controlConnection.setConf("GeoIPFile",
 config.getGeoIpFile().getCanonicalPath());
 controlConnection.setConf("GeoIPv6File",
 config.getGeoIpv6File().getCanonicalPath
                         ());
 }}}
