Bug 872710

FYI, I started looking at this. Along with PostGIS update, I'm working on a GeOS update.

Hi Devrim, do you think this update will be made on time for the release of fedora 18 ? The version mismatch is still present.

:( Well, geos builds were a bit problematic. Looking again.

Any updates on this?
The issue has been still available in Fedora 18 GA.

player-3.0.2-24.fc18,gdal-1.9.1-15.fc18.1,grass-6.4.2-5.fc18,geos-3.3.7-1.fc18,postgis-2.0.2-2.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/player-3.0.2-24.fc18,gdal-1.9.1-15.fc18.1,grass-6.4.2-5.fc18,geos-3.3.7-1.fc18,postgis-2.0.2-2.fc18

I used this opportunity to upgrade geos to 3.3.7, too.

still can't use postgis in F18 :(

Now giving another try on new builds...

postgis-2.0.3-1.fc18,osm2pgsql-0.70.5-0.11.20121021svn.fc18,python-basemap-1.0.6-2.fc18,gdal-1.9.1-16.fc18.1,player-3.0.2-25.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18.

I get the following when trying to run shp2pgsql from postgis-2.0.3-1.fc18:

$ shp2pgsql

Created attachment 730363 [details]
Don't install shp2pgsql and shp2pgsql-gui manually, let "make install" take care of it

See attached patch, shp2pgsql and shp2pgsql-gui are installed by "make install" now and no longer need to be installed manually, especially since they use libtool now.

I ran into this problem, and I was able to solve it with the 2.0.3-1 build with the patch from comment 11.

I did not encounter the errors described in comment 10 using that patch.

I'm getting very similar errors as comment #10 in Fedora 19:
[blr@dalmuti AER2]$ shp2pgsql

I haven't tried the patch yet, are there updated rpms for F19?

This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
