With postgis, I give it a special prefix in ./configure, but that is

Fink could be the source of the trouble, though I don't know where or
how. I've had problems with it myself in the past, years ago when I
was starting on the porting thing, and finally ditched it when I
learned enough about building unix software from source. And I've
talked with others (in recent years) trying to (unsuccessfully) mix
Fink/Macports and external libraries and sources, and the only
reliable solution was to completely eradicate it from the system.
You might want to try to get Fink to add PostGIS, or ask their
support for any ideas on what might be causing problems (if it is
Fink causing it).
The prefix is the only other possibility I can think of. Try
configuring without that (use the --with-pgsql= option instead), so
it installs in the postgres library dir. It's simple to remove if
that doesn't do it.
Hmm, I was just looking back at your previous emails. I see your
original configure line was:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/postgis-1.3.1
--with-proj-libdir=/usr/local/proj-4.5.0/lib/
--with-geos-libdir=/usr/local/geos-3.0.0rc4/lib/
/usr/local is not where Fink puts its stuff (it's /sw). Are you sure
you use Fink? Or did you try installing and using it later? Or
maybe you have Fink installed, but compiled proj and geos from scratch?
