[postgis-users] Postgis on Solaris 10

[Koen Van Daele]

Hello,

I am trying to install Postgis on Solaris 10.

I installed postgresql from blastwave.org (Postgresql 8.1).

I also installed geos (2.0.0) and proj (4.4.8) from blastwave.

I tried compiling postgis, this gave me several errors. I removed the 
blastwave version of geos because it seems rather old and compiled the 
latest release (2.2.1). This seems to have worked.

Now when I trien to compile postgis I get the following errors:

In file included from /opt/csw/postgresql/include/server/c.h:53,
                from /opt/csw/postgresql/include/server/postgres.h:48,
                from lwgeom_pg.h:4,
                from liblwgeom.c:26:

/opt/csw/postgresql/include/server/port.h:299: error: conflicting types 
for 'unsetenv'
/usr/include/stdlib.h:188: error: previous declaration of 'unsetenv' was

Can anyone help me? I'm rather new to all this so I don't know what to 
do. From reading the list I gather it might be compiler-related? Should 
I just compile everything (postgresql, proj, geos and postgis) from scratch?

Greetings,
