For compiling 2.0 for Ubuntu, I’d recommend doing a custom build of GDAL 1.9 with GEOS 3.3.2—otherwise you’ll have the package manager bringing in GEOS 3.2.x for GDAL 1.7, and then you’ll have two GEOS libraries floating out there… . Might fix the problem below too.

I have plenty of experience building this stuff from maintaining most of the GIS stack for the Homebrew package manager on OS X. Entirely new to Debian packaging though, so that will slow me down quite a bit. -Charlie Actually, after re-reading the installation notes, it doesn't look like GDAL 1.9 is mandatory---just that GDAL >= 1.6 will be mandatory once PostGIS 2.0 is released. -Charlie Allright, took a few jabs at this and here is what I have found so far: - Without GEOS 3.3.2, PostGIS must be configured `--without-topology` so this definitely knocks out a big chunk of 2.0 functionality. - 2.0.0beta2 can compile against the dependencies supplied for PostGIS 1.5.x via `apt-get build-dep postgis` with the addition of GDAL 1.7.0 via `apt-get install libgdal1-dev`. However, 2.0.0beta3, released today, and the current SVN head fail during configure: RASTER: Raster support requested checking for GDAL >= 1.6.0... found checking gdal.h usability... yes checking gdal.h presence... yes checking for gdal.h... yes checking ogr_api.h usability... yes checking ogr_api.h presence... yes checking for ogr_api.h... yes checking cpl_conv.h usability... yes checking cpl_conv.h presence... yes checking for cpl_conv.h... yes checking for GDALAllRegister in -lgdal... no configure: error: could not find gdal This is odd, because running nm against the libraries shows that the symbol is there: vagrant@vagrant-64:~/postgis-2.0.0beta3$ nm --dynamic /usr/lib/libgdal1.7.0.so | grep GDALAllRegister 000000000021a820 T GDALAllRegister Don't know if this is a bug in the latest beta, or a problem with Ubuntu's GDAL 1.7.0 libraries. Any advice would be appreciated. -Charlie
