[postgis-users] Fatal: Symbol pj_set_searchpath

[Christian Schaffer]

Hi list,
hello Mark and Frank,

thanks for your replies.
I backed out the precompiled proj 4.4.8, compiled the latest version of 
proj (4.6.0) from scratch and adapted the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After that, I 
configured and compiled postgis anew with minimal options:
./configure \
--with-pgsql=/opt/csw/postgresql/bin/pg_config \
--with-proj=/usr/local/proj-4.6.0 \
--prefix=/usr/local/postgis-1.3.2

Trying to import lwpostgis.sql now throws the following error:
# /opt/csw/postgresql/bin/psql -d template_postgis -f test.txt -U postgres
psql:test.txt:4: NOTICE:  type "histogram2d" is not yet defined
DETAIL:  Creating a shell type definition.
psql:test.txt:4: ERROR:  could not load library 
"/usr/local/postgis-1.3.2/lib/liblwgeom.so": ld.so.1: postgres: Schwerer 
Fehler: libproj.so.0: Öffnen fehlgeschlagen: Datei oder Verzeichnis 
nicht gefunden

If I issue ldd against liblwgeom.so, it knows where to find libproj.so.0:
# ldd liblwgeom.so
        libproj.so.0 =>  /usr/local/proj-4.6.0/lib/libproj.so.0
        libgcc_s.so.1 =>         /opt/csw/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
        libm.so.2 =>     /lib/libm.so.2
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1

I?d really appreciate, if you gave me some hints on what I might be 
doing wrong here.
Thanks in advance, best regards,
Chris
