Public bug reported:

Hello,

I have discovered a bug in libspatialite7’s ST_Transform() function
where transforms from WGS84 geographic coordinates (EPSG:4326) to NAD83
UTM 10N (EPSG:26910) returns incorrect results on Ubuntu 20.04/Debian 11
(and perhaps other versions). The behavior on macOS and Alpine Linux
appears to be correct. Note that transforms to WGS84 UTM 10N
(EPSG:32610) seems to work fine on Ubuntu/Debian.

Here are the steps to reproduce:

# DB Setup

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test(id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY);
SELECT AddGeometryColumn ('test', 'point', 4326, 'POINT', 'XY', 1);

INSERT INTO test (point) VALUES (GeomFromText('POINT(-122.338928 47.629273)', 
4326));
INSERT INTO test (point) VALUES (GeomFromText('POINT(-122.338923 47.62927)', 
4326));
INSERT INTO test (point) VALUES (GeomFromText('POINT(-122.33895 47.629253)', 
4326));
INSERT INTO test (point) VALUES (GeomFromText('POINT(-122.392051 47.62888)', 
4326));
INSERT INTO test (point) VALUES (GeomFromText('POINT(-122.392038 47.62888)', 
4326));

To make sure this wasn’t PROJ that was broken, I did the following PROJ queries:

# Results from Ubuntu 22.04 / Debian 11 (ARM64 and x86_64):

So it seems that the PROJ output is the same for all three (or six if you 
include architecture), so the problem likely lies in libspatialite7 on 
Debian/Ubuntu.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks,

Brian
