Tom,
Thanks for this info.
I now discovered that, despite removing the "libgeos-3.7.0" by using
Synaptic, I also had a secondary version living in my "/usr/local/lib/"
folder. Purging all "libgeos" prefixed files with the command you
supplied, indeed made it now possible to use CREATE EXTENSION for
PostGIS in pgAdmin4. So there was a conflict lurking there in the
"/usr/local/lib/" folder. I actually have no idea how the libgeos files
ended up there, or why they weren't removed by Synaptic if that used to
be the official installation folder.
I don't know if this is the only issue though, and would need to start
to test the current installation properly in order to make sure
everything is truly OK now, but it is at least a significant step forward.

Whatever lives in /usr/local/lib was my manual build so I had to
delete that manually.
I did `sudo rm /usr/local/lib/libgeos*` (same for proj and sfcgal)
On top of that I purged all old package configurations `sudo apt purge
<packagename>` just to be sure but I don't think it is needed.
Best,
Tom

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the tip, but what did you do to remove the old install?
Did you rely on Apt or Synaptic to remove the old libgeos version,
or did you manually clean up folders? I had two versions of
libgeos as well (3.7 and 3.8) if I remember well (need to start up
the VM again to check), and removed the older one through Synaptic
just leaving the 3.8 version, but that wasn't enough to solve my
particular issues.

I think I solved it.
The issue lies with gdal, not postgis (test by running
`gdalinfo`), and it turns out there was an old install of libgeos
(3.7) in my /us/local/lib. After simply removing all related
files in /usr/local/lib gdal (and postgis and qgis) stopped
complaining (I had to remove old installs of geos, proj and
sfcgal for that).
This issue put me on the right track:

Thanks Tom,
I have seen a similar error related to the "libgdal26"
library, but that was after other trials to get something
running on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal, where I successfully installed
PostGIS 2.5.4, but then encountered issues when my code
called the "postgis_full_version()" function and errored out
with the error message below related to the "libgdal.so.26"
library. However, as said, this was with PostGIS 2.5.4, not
with the PostGIS 3.0.1 I actually want to install at this
moment and that gave the other error related to the
"postgis-3.so" library.
SQL Error [XX000]: ERROR: could not load library
"/usr/lib/postgresql/11/lib/rtpostgis-2.5.so

Where: SQL statement "SELECT public.postgis_gdal_version()"
PL/pgSQL function postgis_full_version() line 34 at SQL statement

Sorry for the short answer, am on the way currently. Will try
to do a decent report tonight.
Error is roughly the same but comes from libgdal26 in my case
when doing apt install qgis after an upgrade to 20.04.
best, Tom

Thanks for the response Tom, but could you be a bit more
specific?
What do you mean with "Same problem with qgis"? Do you
mean you've also encountered a "undefined symbol:
GEOSMakeValid" error related to the "postgis-3.so"
library when trying to use some tool in QGIS?
I have installed PostgreSQL 12 and PostGIS 3.0.1 via
Synaptic on Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal) and use CREATE EXTENSION
(via pgAdmin4), when I encounter the error.

Hi all,
Is there someone who can confirm they have been able
to install PostGIS
3.0.1 via the official APT repository?:
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt
After using the Synaptics Package Manager to install
the three packages
involved
("postgresql-12-postgis-3"/"postgresql-12-postgis-3-dbgsym"/"postgresql-12-postgis-3-scripts"),
and subsequently trying to create the PostGIS
extension in pgAdmin4, I
get the following error:
ERROR: could not load library
"/usr/lib/postgresql/12/lib/postgis-3.so":
/usr/lib/postgresql/12/lib/postgis-3.so: undefined
symbol: GEOSMakeValid
I have been trying different things to fix this for
past two days
including re-install, but to no avail. I have also
attempted to include
the UbuntuGIS repository as a potential alternative
resource of PostGIS
packages, but discovered the UbuntuGIS repository is
lagging behind and
doesn't yet have packages for 20.04LTS.
