[postgis-users] Ready for 1.0.0 ? AMD64/Linux 2.6.10/pg8.0.1

[strk at refractions.net]

James, thank you for your report.
Take a look at lwpostgis.sql, it should use $libdir for liblwgeom finding,
which is expanded at runtime by postgresql (is the $libdir there?).

As for installation it uses $(pkglibdir) which is a postgresql variable.
I find your lib to be installed fine, but your $libdir to be wrong - it
seems to have been set to what you specified with --libdir. Somewhere
in pgsql confs (postgresql.conf probably) you should find its definition.

--strk;
