Re: [postgis-users] postgis removed from latest postgres' stack builder?

Hi Daniel, The docs are a good place to start, but here is the simple version, from the command line... If you have got Postgres installed OK, you need to create a new database, then install Postgis into it, so I'm assuming you have a working Postgres superuser account you can use.  Then: # cr

Why there isn't anymore the field SPATIAL EXTENSIONS (wich have postgis) in the latest version of Postgres' STACK BUILDER? This is weird... I mean, I had to download an older version of Postgres to be able to install Postgis. I really think this should be fixed. Thanks, Daniel _

It would be more clear if your architecture only used postgis to serve data to a non-postgis client application. Maybe you can use postgis this way without providing your custom patches. On Wed, Dec 28, 2011 at 7:10 AM, Greg Troxel wrote: > > From: Josh Jordan > > I think it should be ok as

From: Josh Jordan I think it should be ok as long as you open source any custom patches in the postgis that you distribute. This doesn't make sense - that would be for LGPL, more or less. Certainly one has to provide the source to the GPL component, modified or not, and regardless of bund
