I'm trying to build postgis-1.3.1 on a Centos 5.0 system (same as RedHat EL 5.0). I built the prerequisite's immediately prior, including postgresql and when it comes to the step of applying lwpostgis.sql, I get exactly the same behavior referenced in this posting from August 17th (http://postgis.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2007-August/016749.html) : the script runs fine until near the end when I get this message: psql:lwpostgis.sql:4093: ERROR: could not find function "coveredby" in file "/usr/lib/pgsql/liblwgeom.so.1.3" Every transaction after that step fails.
The linker shows it knows of the library
[EMAIL PROTECTED] postgis-1.3.1]# /sbin/ldconfig -v | grep geom
       liblwgeom.so.1 -> liblwgeom.so.1.3
and since most of the script runs fine it seems that the library is being used.

This is the first build on a virgin system so there are no previous library versions hanging around:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] pgsql]# ls -l liblwgeom*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Oct  5 12:48 liblwgeom.so -> liblwgeom.so.1.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Oct 5 12:48 liblwgeom.so.1 -> liblwgeom.so.1.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 999008 Oct  5 12:48 liblwgeom.so.1.3

and there is no "coveredby" or anything close in liblwgeom.so.1.3
[EMAIL PROTECTED] pgsql]# nm -o liblwgeom.so.1.3 | grep -i cover
[EMAIL PROTECTED] pgsql]#

I'm stuck. The answer in the previous thread was essentially "wait a bit then re-grab the source and try again" but that was quite some time ago. Has any one experienced and overcome this? Thanks.

Steve
