#5035: st_dwithin(geography,geography,double precision) needs a REPLACE note and
document change
---------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  robe     |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium   |  Milestone:  PostGIS 3.1.5
Component:  postgis  |    Version:  2.5.x
 Keywords:           |
---------------------+---------------------------
 I ran into issues trying to upgrade a PG 9.6 2.4 database to PG 11 3.1.

 It failed on trying to drop ST_DWithin(geography,geography, double
 precision)


 {{{
  materialized view public.vw_mat.. depends on function
 st_dwithin(geography,geography,double precision)
 }}}


 There is no comment that this was even changed. But I bet it was changed
 to a) add argument names and or b) add the SUPPORT postgis_index_supportfn

 which requires PostgreSQL 12 or higher

 The code says - last change was 1.5.0.

 At anyrate this should be documented in the docs and in the code.  It
 should use the new REPLACE documentation syntax
