installation from source fails

[brushtyler]

I've built postgis from source, but installing it I get the following error message:

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./sql/postgis--2.0.0--2.1.0SVN.sql ./sql/postgis--2.0.1--2.1.0SVN.sql ./sql/postgis--2.1.0SVN--2.1.0SVNnext.sql ./sql/postgis--2.1.0SVNnext--2.1.0SVN.sql ./sql/postgis--2.1.0SVN.sql ./sql/postgis--unpackaged--2.1.0SVN.sql ./sql/postgis--2.1.0SVN.sql '/usr/local/pgsql/share/extension/'

/usr/bin/install: will not overwrite just-created `/usr/local/pgsql/share/extension/postgis--2.1.0SVN.sql' with `./sql/postgis--2.1.0SVN.sql'

make[2]: Error 1

I'm on Ubuntu 11.04, trying to install PostGIS trunk.

Which version of postgresql?

do:

SELECT version();

patch to fix #2081

Replying to robe:

Which version of postgresql?

I'm using postgresql trunk (9.3devel).

BTW I've attached a patch that fixes the problem (at least here): the /usr/bin/install is called passing "./sql/postgis—2.1.0SVN.sql" 2 times.

It doesn't seem to me related to postgresql version in anyway.

weird I'm not seeing any errors when I do make install on my 9.2 test server.

I'll give your change a try and commit if it doesn't cause any issues. I wonder if 9.3 is more sensitive to the duplication (or Ubuntu is). On 9.3 we just pull the latest weekly and just do a make check (not make install).

okay committed at r10641 (for 2.1.0). I assume 2.0 probably has a similar issue, but I'll wait off on that for a bit and leave this ticket open until I commit that.

hmm I'm afraid to touch 2.0 since I don't seem to be having issue make install. let's just call it fixed at 2.1.0
