I know people have tried to prevent the liblwgeom system one from being
picked up instead of the one that is part of the source.
Greg Troxel submitted a patch once, worked great cause on NetBSD and FreeBSD
the system installed one was being picked up.
I think somewhere along the line someone ran into issues and changed the
sort of the includes which broke things again.
https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/4260
Anyway enough is enough because we don't even support liblwgeom being used
as a development package, so WHY do we insist on installing the includes.
+1 for not installing it in 3.0
I think we had discussions and there was enough dissension about removing it
in earlier versions as a "BUG FIX". Considered too breaking for some
reason.
So I'll settle for removing it in 3.0
Thanks,
Regina
