[pgrouting-users] Error whilst installing on CentOS 5.5

[Charles Galpin]

I don't think the version os the problem since I am running the same. I don't recall what I did exactly but did run ldconfig at some point.  Perhaps run that and try again.

However I have since learned about pgrpms and in theory installing postgis should be as simple as

rpm -ivh http://yum.pgrpms.org/reporpms/9.0/pgdg-centos-9.0-2.noarch.rpm
yum install postgis90

This ets the postgres repos setup and then installs postgis and all dependencies from it.

There is a remote chance you'd need to edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo [base] and [updates] sections and add

exclude=postgresql*

This might be worth a try (I have tried this in a fresh VM and it appears to have worked fine but have not attempted to use it yet). Long term this is a much better approach than building from scratch each time (for me). I am not sure if this includes pgrouting, but it's a good start even if not.
