I am attempting to following instructions to install PostGIS here (to install the latest production release of PostGIS on CentOS 8.1):
https://postgis.net/install --- In the section titled: `Red Hat / Centos / Scientific Linux` I do not understand exactly what it is I need to do there, or if I need to do it,or how to determine if I need to do anything in that section. --- When I run this command on my CentOS 8 system, `$dnf list | grep postgis30_12` I get: ``` postgis30_12.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 postgis30_12-client.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 postgis30_12-devel.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 postgis30_12-docs.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 postgis30_12-gui.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 postgis30_12-utils.x86_64 3.0.1-2.rhel8 pgdg12 ``` --- *Question 1:* so therefore, is there anything in that section that I need to do? *Question 2:* After reading this section, how would I determine if I need to do anything? *Question 3:* And if so, what would that be? --- *When I run:* `create extension postgis;` *I get this error:* ERROR: could not open extension control file "/usr/pgsql-12/share/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory When checking, indeed that file (*postgis.control*) is not there. *Question 4:* What am I missing? --- *sql>select version();`* PostgreSQL 12.2 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 8.3.1 20190507 (Red Hat 8.3.1-4), 64-bit --- OS installed was: *CentOS Linux release 8.1.1911* (Core) (not sure why it says: Red Hat 8.3.1-4 in: select version();) ---
