I just wasted hours because I didn't notice the following sentence in the
KyngChaos packages section of the GeoDjango installation instructions [1]:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/contrib/gis/install/#kyngchaos-
packages
"Afterwards, you can also install the KyngChaos binary packages for
PostgreSQL and PostGIS."
I didn't see the sentence, and so I installed PostgreSQL from brew, and
found too late that the KyngChaos packages should really all be installed
together.
Clearly this is partly my fault, but given that this is really an
instruction not an aside, perhaps it could be made more obvious? I'd pull
it out into a separate paragraph, and make it much clearer that it's an
instruction.
