[GRASSLIST:8553] Re: PostGIS and libs

[Konstantinos Theofilis]

Thanks!

I thought so but one can never be too sure...
Of course, for obvious reasons, it is better if i could alter the  
config file of Postgis. I found all occurrences of "GEOS_DIR" and  
"PROJ_DIR" but the make still fails..

I will install it with libs in /usr/local.

Thanks again!
