I have a table that I have defined as:

CREATE TABLE test (
        "id" SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
        "first_path" path NOT NULL,
        "second_path" path NOT NULL
);


I am attempting to create a GiST index on the two “path” columns using:


CREATE INDEX  "idx_test_first_path" ON test USING gist(first_path);
CREATE INDEX  "idx_test_second_path" ON test USING gist(second_path);


I am getting this error:


Error : ERROR:  data type path has no default operator class for access method 
"gist"


Is it that I am not allowed to create an index on the path data type or do I 
need to enable an extension for this to work? Thanks in advance for your help.
