[postgis-devel] WKT Raster: Why havingtocompilePostgreSQL&PostGIS first?

Pierre,

I cheated on that part as Mark said.  I used my OpenSUSE VM downloaded from http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html (which I use for .NET testing on Linux and just happened to come in handy for postgis development as well)

below to do the autogen stuff and then sftp to my windows desktop with filezilla (though I suppose I could have used a file share, but seemed just as easy to use sftp).

Alternatively for just compiling postgis you can download from the daily svn snapshot and pull out the configure stuff.  

Are we going to have an svn snapshot for WKT Raster?  Would be nice if we did.

Hope that helps,
Regina

I got GEOS built. Last is PostGIS (and then WKT Raster). I get:

racinep at DESROCHERSA-02 /wktrasterdevel/postgis/trunk
$ ./autogen.sh 
/usr/share/aclocal/autoopts.m4:22: warning: underquoted definition of AG_PATH_AUTOOPTS
  run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
  or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending%20aclocal

Regina already had this problem (http://www.nabble.com/Compile-issues-on-MingW-trunk-td21626492.html) but I don't understand the fix.

Pierre
