Greetings,
I have analyzed this bug and found a fix.
The faulty symlink is caused by that there are two different postgis
versions stated in the package. One general in Version.config, and one
specifically for JDBC in java/jdbc/pom.xml.
However, the debian/rules file uses a single variable POSTGIS_VERSION
retrieved from Version.config for both of these, ignoring the value for
JDBC.
The attached patch retrieves a new variable POSTGIS_JDBC_VERSION from
java/jdbc/pom.xml and uses it in the creation of the symlink which now
works.
Furthermore this bug blocks debbug #713278 (Osmosis FTBFS). If one
manages to workaround the Checkstyle version being too recent, it
instead fails to build as postgis can't be found due to this incorrect
symlink.
Regards,
Anders Jonsson
