[postgis-users] OSX Server (Lion) linking failures on i386 architecture

2 thoughts:

The Snow Leopard instructions should work for Lion.

• I have ready-made packages for Postgres and PostGIS.

Theory of the Universe

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarrely inexplicable.  There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
