I understand the problem. However, we are tyring to build an automated 
installer for a GIS application under Linux, and we would not like to have 
to program a installer that compiles from the sources.

Whereas we have already compiled postgis a couple of times, we have never 
produced rpms. Is it difficult? Does anybody have a script or something 
similar that we can use?

Gerald and Jean David,

Thank you very much. I am downloading and testing them right now :)

I know this message no longer belongs to the 'users list', but rather to the 
'developers' one. If I should move the thread, just tell me.

Thank you very much in advance.
