[postgis-users] Failing make check tests

[Stephen Souness]

Hi all,

I have just set up a server (32 bit Debian Linux) with Postgresql 8.2, 
GEOS 2.2.3 and PostGIS 1.2.0

When I run:
make check

there are several errors reported, which I suspect may prevent my 
application from being able to make use of the functionality that I am 
trying to obtain.

Can anyone offer some suggestions as to where I may have gone wrong?

Here is the output that make check produced:


make -C regress test
