[postgis-users] WKT Raster - geos version error while running rtpostgis.sql

[Tyler Erickson]

Yes, while building PostGIS I specified that it should use geos 3.2.2.  Here
is the relevant output from the postgis ./configure step:

 -------------- Dependencies -------------- 
  GEOS config:          /usr/local/geos/3.2.2/bin/geos-config
  GEOS version:         3.2.2
  PostgreSQL config:    /usr/bin/pg_config
  PostgreSQL version:   PostgreSQL 8.4.4
  PROJ4 version:        47
  Libxml2 config:       /usr/bin/xml2-config
  Libxml2 version:      2.7.5
  PostGIS debug level:  0

I also checked that when I request the postgis version from the template
database I created, it lists geos 3.2.2

psql -d $WKTRASTER_TEMPLATE -c "SELECT POSTGIS_FULL_VERSION()"
                                         postgis_full_version
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
POSTGIS="1.5.1" GEOS="3.2.2-CAPI-1.6.2" PROJ="Rel. 4.7.1, 23 September
2009" LIBXML="2.7.5" USE_STATS

As a work around, I included libgeos-3.2.0.so in my list of shared
libraries. Once this was done, the rtpostgis.sql script ran without an
error.  But I still don't know why it requires geos 3.2.0.
