Hi, recently, I've been working on packaging PostGIS 2.0 for Debian and now consider it ready for uploading to unstable. I'm a DM and would also appreciate upload rights for that package.
Some notes: I took great care to ensure postgis-2.0.3 won't break existing installations of postgis-1.x. For that reason, the binary package names now include a version, i.e. 'postgis-2.0'. Effective upgrade from 1.x to 2.0 requires a dump/restore cycle and is left to the user. Upstream is mixed about liblwgeom. Basically, at the moment, there is no backwards-compatibility guarantee. Taking a conservative approach, I thus added the full version to the binary package name, i.e. liblwgeom-2.0.3. As postgis itself is currently the only user of that library in Debian, that shouldn't be much of an issue. However, spatialite for example may eventually use it as well. See upstream bugs on component liblwgeom: http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=liblwgeom Please see the postgis alioth repository here: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-grass/postgis.git Regards Markus Wanner
