Hi

Whats the policy for build scripts for postgis for new versions of gdal?

When I installed with yum on Centos 7 (X86), I got GDAL 2.3.2 

POSTGIS="2.5.2 r17328" [EXTENSION] PGSQL="110" GEOS="3.7.1-CAPI-1.11.1 27a5e771" SFCGAL="1.3.1" PROJ="Rel. 4.9.3, 15 August 2016" GDAL="GDAL 2.3.2, released 2018/09/21" LIBXML="2.9.1" LIBJSON="0.11" TOPOLOGY RASTER


We are no testing on an arm server and there I had to compile postgis/postgres from source and then I picked latest gdal and that compiled without any errors. 

POSTGIS="2.5.3 r17699" [EXTENSION] PGSQL="110" GEOS="3.7.2-CAPI-1.11.2 b55d2125" SFCGAL="1.3.7" PROJ="Rel. 6.2.0, September 1st, 2019" GDAL="GDAL 3.1.0dev-7a9a0f4-dirty, released 2019/99/99" LIBXML="2.9.1" TOPOLOGY RASTER


What can we go to get a new version of gdal in the next postgis 2.5  for CentOS x86 ?

Thanks 

Lars

Hello,

According to repology, CentOS 7 doesn't even ship PostGIS. See table at the end of https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/UsersWikiPostgreSQLPostGIS - it contains all distributions.

If you are installing from some custom repository - which one is that? Please find that repository's GDAL maintainer. It may happen that you find their contact details on RPM file's metadata.

Yum.postgresql.org ships for CentOS.  That’s what I use.

The CentOS packages would be under "EPEL 7"

I often try to pick up the latest versions in the PostgreSQL community
repositories, but GDAL is one of the exceptions. Upgrading it involves lots of
packages, including dependencies like ogdi, and it will take more time that I
ever thought.

It is on my list. See:

https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgrpms.git;a=commitdiff;h=e1772592e8dbf148c43dcdaf3463bed3b7ede308

I already pushed a WIP version.

In the last couple of weeks, I spent more than 100 hours for GIS RPMs, making
them stable on our repo and EPEL 8 as well. I hope GDAL 3.0 won't be that far
away.

-HTH

Looks like it assumes that everyone submits their repos to repology. :)

I see CentOS and EPEL there, and they seem to ship something really old. If some distro's repo is lost (not ppa or overlay), why not add it there? It's a biggest repo comparator anyway.

Hi


Thanks that's nice to hear, just let us know if you want us to test something.


One more question. 


Is it any plans for makeing binaries for Postgres/Postgis running on CentOs on aarch64 (ARM64, ARMv8) CPU's ?

I already committed GDAL 3.0.1 to the git repo. I'm waiting for stabilizing
OGDI 4.1.0 RPM. Should take just a few days. I'll let you know.

Not at the moment We (PostgreSQL.org) don't have any ARM* build instances.
