Hi,

Updates were blocked by a Fedora contributor who wanted to push his security update for another package first.

Given that GeOS 3.3.8 was released today, and PostGIS 2.0.3 is very close, I can give another try this weekend.

Still, I strongly suggest you to use PostgreSQL RPM repo: http://yum.postgresql.org . It includes whatever you need.

Regards,
