Another workaround is to slightly buffer one of the lines

Correction :
it gives the right extremities, but so the segments between are lost.

A work around is to use ST_Split(line,point) instead,
while snapping point to line (closestPoint)
but this is painfull

Hey list,

ST_Intersection(line,line) seems to be faulty in the above case:
It should return a line , but strangely enough it returns multipoints with the correct points of the line it should return.

I guess I should be happy to have an answer at all.
Any thought?
Cheers,

SELECT row_number() over() as id,  ST_AsText(ST_Intersection(l1,l2)), ST_Intersection(l1,l2) AS  the_intersection, l1,l2
