#1670: PostGIS not available in TileMill
----------------------+----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  bakaniko  |      Owner:
     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new
 Priority:  normal    |  Milestone:  OSGeoLive9.5
Component:  LiveDVD   |   Keywords:  TileMill, MapNik-plugin, PostGIS
----------------------+----------------------------------------------
 When following the TileMill quickstart, first you create a project, then
 you load data from the PostGIS DB.

 Which you can't since it is greyed !

 Looking to use gdal and Mapnik, i found the reason:
 TileMill needs the mapnik-input-plugin-postgis to communicate with the DB.
 If you install the package, you can use the PostGIS tab in TileMill.

 I didn't finish the quickstart since i found a way around.

 But I recommend to had those package in OSGeo-Live 10.0:
 mapnik-input-plugin-postgis
 mapnik-input-plugin-ogr
 mapnik-input-plugin-gdal
 mapnik-input-plugin-osm
 mapnik-input-plugin-sqlite

 They are around 200 kB each.
