You are right, that file should be there because standard postgis does not contain this projection and i guess it would give weird results with mapnik. I will add this file as an example in /usr/share/doc/osm2pgsql/examples/. In case you not already extracted it from the source package, here is the content until the updated package is available.

(Yes I know bugs.debian.org is not > for bugs in the openstreetmap wiki but...). 900913.sql is not essential for osm2pgsql to work, but it's still a bug that is is missing from the package. So thanks for reporting it here so that we can fix the package instead of 'reporting' it to the OSM wiki :) Regards, Andreas _______________________________________________ Pkg-grass-devel mailing list Pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-grass-devel
