<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto">I looked through code and didn't see any update commands or any calls to "spatial_ref_sys.sql" in the script "postgis--ANY--3.1.4.sql". In 3.1.4 there are several new rows in the table.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto"><br>
1. Is this object purposely not recreated via the update script?<br>
2. In the docs: <a href="https://postgis.net/docs/manual-3.0/postgis_installation.html#upgrading" target="_blank"><span style="color:#1A73E8">https://postgis.net/docs/manual-3.0/postgis_installation.html#upgrading</span></a>, is this why the "HARD UPGRADE"
method is required? If so, why is there even a symlink named "postgis--2.4.5--3.1.4.sql"?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
