@Lohmaier, urpmi is doing user side geolocalization based on user selected timezone, removing the need for carrying additional geoip databases on user side.
What one actually doesn't get by not using mirrorbrain is a neat mirroring utility that can be used together with urpmi while at it, rather than the current mirror api that urpmi is using.
FWIW mirrorbrain support has just recently been introduced to original upstream branch of urpmi.. :)
