[postgis-devel] Parallel installations

[alex bodnaru]

thanks,

you are right.
this should be the way to cope with it, and i might do it for debian gis.
but main debian is very reluctant to multitude of same functionality
packages.

have any postgis function footprint (name and parameters) changed or
dropped from 1.0 to 1.1?
