Hi,

I had trouble accessing the raster2pgsql binary with different apt 
postgresql-x-postgis-x distros in the past. It’s not callable as executable and 
I can’t find it in the usual bin/ directories. I can only access it when 
installing ‘apt-get install postgis’ which leaves me with a postgresql v10 
distro. Not a dealbreaker, but a bit annoying. So my questions are:

- how can I access raster2pgsql in a postgres specific postgis version from 
apt, e.g. postgresql-9.6-postgis-2.4?

- is there a way to compile the tool independent of a postgis installation, as 
to not have a full postgres installation for just using raster2pgsql? Context: 
sometimes I only need the tool in a docker container to update an external 
database. 

Or does it need compilation against specific postgis versions? I guess GDAL is 
a dependency, but the produced .sql should be rather independent of postgis 
versions right?

Of course I could write my own sql statements for raster import, but it’s sooo 
convenient:)

Many thanks
Nils
