Hi,

The new version of postgis (2.5) is coming soon. I'm preparing the tests to integrate it into our ports. I take this opportunity to ask you a general question about the status of postgis in our ports.

As for postgresql, with each postgis version, we have a port (databases/postgis2(1,2,3,4 and soon 5). I proposed some time ago, to be able to manage these versions with a USE ( https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213038 ) which from my point of view allows to simplify dependencies as for pgrouting ( https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225264 )

I wonder if we should continue to maintain all versions and in this case, we should go ahead with the framework (or other ideas?). Another possibility is simply to delete the different versions and only propose the last one; I will prepare the patch for the postgis25 release.

What do you think of that?

Regards

Loïc


Hi Loïc,

thanks for your efforts. I really like the idea of the suggested framework.

In our ports tree, we have PostgreSQL versions from 9.3 upwards. The support matrix of PostgreSQL and PostGIS versions [1] shows, that PostGIS 2.1 and 2.2 are obsolete now and can be deprecated.

PostGIS 2.4 seems to be the version with support for all PostgreSQL version in our tree.

HTH,
Rainer
