At the current moment, March 4th 2013, can PostGIS2.0 be install with PostgreSQL 9.2?
I checked their website and to my understanding it is not possible...
I hope that's not the case. Can anyone tell me and point out the instructions on how to install PostGIS 2.0 on PostgreSQL 9.2 on Ubuntu?
Just a followup: I just checked it and now there is a package called postgresql-9.2-postgis-2.0. The problem is finally gone.
From what I recall reading recently you'd probably have to install both PostgreSQL and PostGIS from source in that case.
This isn't particularly difficult but you need to make sure you have all the appropriate development packages installed. Often times this will be trial and error (run ./configure, see what it complains about, install the package, wash, rinse, repeat).
if you go this route, I highly recommend running ./configure --help and reading through all the options. The PostgreSQL source is very configurable and this is easy. From there, though, PostGIS should be a piece of cake.
