[postgis-users] Installing PostGIS

[Robert W. Burgholzer]

Not real experienced myself, but are you un-packing the postgis source tree 
inside /usr/local/psql/contrib/?

If so, you need to be in the postgresql source directory under contrib. 
This would require that the postgresql be installed from source, or at 
least have a source tree. See:
http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/c59.html

Sorry if I am totally off here,
