Comment (by autra):

 I'm allowing an additional comment for anyone passing by: to fix this, you
 must either update libgeos or postgis (to v3). However, if you are on
 debian buster, beware that you only have postgis-3 package for postgresql
 12. BUT also beware that the gdal version buster ships with is currently
 not compatible with postgresql12 (we need
 https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/commit/963618e77de4eee5e7321f5f5ca7abc2b7287fa2
 and the 2.4 version in buster doesn't have that)!

 So if you also need gdal, your only choice as of now is to use pgdg
 repository and install postgresql-11-postgis-3 from there.

 It's a pity that the only broken tuple of versions are precisely the one
 that ships in buster... I'm not sure what would be the less costly
 solution for this though.
