My bet: get the sources from repository with a Subversion client, compile them and update your databases (or create a new one) with postgis.sql, spatial_ref_sys.sql and rtpostigs.sql. It's an easy task in Ubuntu 10.10 And yes, a backup of your current databases and the lib files (/usr/lib/postgresql/yourversionnumber/lib/postgis-2.0.so and /usr/lib/postgresql/yourversionnumber/lib/rtpostgis-2.0.so) sounds like a good idea :-) Best regards, -- Jorge Arévalo Internet & Mobilty Division, DEIMOS [email protected] http://es.linkedin.com/in/jorgearevalo80 http://mobility.grupodeimos.com/ http://gis4free.wordpress.com http://geohash.org/ezjqgrgzz0g _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list [email protected] http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
