[postgis-users] RE: Compile Problem with postgis (from Mark Cave-Ayland)

[Darren Houston]

Hello Oli,

This may be the problem;

I see PostGIS is trying to compile for PostgreSQL 7.3.X (-DUSE_VERSION=73).
I'm not sure why this is happening, but you can edit the Makefile and set the 
variable USE_VERSION to =7.4

Also, I would recomend using PostGIS 0.8.2.

Hope this helps,

Darren H.
