[postgis-users] Problem on ./configure

[Jeff Lounsbury]

In the .../postgresql-8.0/contrib/postgis-1.0.4/Makefile.config 
(someplace like that) file,
do you have the following pointing to the correct proj directory:

USE_PROJ ?= 1
PROJ_DIR ?= /opt/proj-4.4.9

also did you make sure to run the
echo /opt/proj-4.4.9/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf
ldconfig
commands with the right path?

Cheers,
-Jeff
