that seems reasonable PostGIS 2 is off the considerations, without a doubt.. a month ago i had hopes, but reality has set in
There are indeed .debs for PostgreSQL 9 and have been for some months I dont claim to know the ins and outs of packages at all I can tell you that * compatability is excellent; it is, after all, the database world * since they are .deb, I imagine that one undertands what another one is with that said, it is not at all written in stone I agree that it needs to be more than stable.. very solid I would not suggest something unless I could represent that ... best regards -Brian On Wed, 29 Jun 2011 18:00:20 -0700 (PDT), Hamish wrote: Brian wrote:

What we have to work with on Natty is Postgres 8.4.8 + PostGIS 1.5.2: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=postgresql http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=postgis https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-unstable?field.series_filter=natty even if alternate mainstream .debs of PGql+PGis exist for Natty (do they?), the rest of the ubuntugis package cascade hasn't been built for them. The most important thing is that "it just works". being up to date with the latest bleeding edge version is secondary. This is core infrastructure for the disc & IMO we must be very conservative with the toolchain. best, Hamish
