Hi,
I have installed PostGIS 1.5.2 on a PostgreSQL 9.0.4 (OpenSCG RPM) on an
RHEL5.5 system, during the build process, when I ran make (after
./configure) I got the following error.
Error message extract:
gcc -E -traditional-cpp postgis.sql.in.c | grep -v '^#' postgis.sql.in
sed 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$libdir/postgis-1.5,g' postgis.sql.in postgis.sql

It appears to be a PERL variable belonging to the ./postgis/Makefile
script - somehow it's getting set to a value of
/opt/ActivePerl-5.10/bin/perl which doesn't appear to relate to my system
(which only has Perl v5.8 installed, and in a different directory.) I
couldn't work out where PERL was being set in the scripts.
I've seen a similar ticket reported for the same problem for V2.0 (the
ticket is currently closed.) Refs are:
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/521
and
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/DevWikiWinMingWSys_20
That particular fault was reported against a Windows install, but it also
seems to affect the Linux installation.
I used the solution provided in the Wiki page reporting the fault eg. after
running configure
sed 's,$(PERL),perl,g' postgis/Makefile postgis/Makefile2
mv postgis/Makefile2 postgis/Makefile
... and it then worked for me. I was wondering if this is actually a bug or
is it something about my system that caused this problem?
Thanks, Bill Teluk.
