PostGIS vs Suse8.0<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is it possible to install PostGIS over
working PostgreSQL installation with Suse 8.0? Or do i have to compile
postgresql form the source code then compile postgis form the source code
as indicated at installation text? Is there any way to make it run over
already installed system? If there is how?</FONT></DIV>
