   * GEOSMinimumRotatedRectangle aka ST_OrientedEnvelope
   * GEOSMaximumInscribedCircle
   * GEOSMinimumBoundingCircle
   * GEOSMinimumBoundingRadius
   * GEOSMinimumBoundingCenter
   * GEOSLargestEmptyCircle
   * GEOSMinimumWidth

Is the SONAME bump not intentional then?

Kind Regards,

freexl 2.0.0 is required, but this doesn't have a final release yet:

 configure: error: could not find 'freexl' (or obsolete 'freexl' < v.2.0.0 found).

freexl 1.0.6 is in Debian unstable, and 2.0.0~rc2 is in experimental because it's not a final release.

Can we get a final release of freexl 2.0.0 to go with spatialite 5.1.0?

Kind Regards,

Bas

The removed symbols justify the SONAME bump:

 - gaiaGetGpkgRTreeFullExtent@Base 5.0.0
 - gaiaGetRTreeFullExtent@Base 5.0.0

Kind Regards,

Bas

Sandro, a big thank you for your work.

Are you planning to release MS Windows binaries for this version in https://www.gaia-gis.it/gaia-sins/?

Kind regards,

Paco.

certainly yes, as usual.
of course, we need to finalize a stable 5.1.0 release first.

Hi Bas,

your patch is now included in RC1

and there was a similar glitch on -/examples too

just out of curiosity I'd like to understand why only Debian unstable
fails to build,
while both all the latest versions of Fedora and Debian 11 "bullseye"
are able to
automagically understand that -sqlite3 was implicitly intended

bye Sandro

My guess is toolchain changes.
