Thanks for your answer Mike, I would definitely prefer to have my postgis
with raster support.
Now i'm not sure why I'd need to install the libgdal-dev package (which is
version 1.6 on debian squeeze) when I've already built and installed gdal
1.9 from source. I never had to install that package when installing
previous postgis versions.

Thanks

Simon
