[PATCH 1/2] debian: Update `location.ipfire.org` links

[Valters Jansons]

Since original configuration of these links, some changes have been
made to the website. Now the old location.ipfire.org landing page
redirects users to ipfire.org/location/ instead. This commit makes
sure listed links are direct links, instead of pointing at redirects.

It looks like the database files stay on the existing URL, so no
modification there. But I am not sure where they get their
"This database has been obtained from https://location.ipfire.org/"
inline comment from.

Hello Valters,

Thanks for the patches.

There has been a redirect which will have to be around for forever, so I didn’t intend to change this, but of course this is the cleaner option.

The database remains on location.ipfire.org <http://location.ipfire.org/> so that we have the option to put the download onto a different server or load-balance it across multiple locations of our infrastructure without touching the main website.

Right now, we don’t quite need to do this, yet, as the traffic is still being perfectly handled by our main infrastructure.

All the best,
-Michael
