I left out the libtiff headers in the Tiger build – fixed. This update only affects those compiling software to use UnixImageIO.

GDAL framework 1.5.1. I also removed the GDAL 1.4 copy from the Tiger installation – I had left that for compatibility with old software, but there were some linking problems with other old frameworks. This will break GRASS 6.2 for Tiger, unless the old Panther frameworks are installed, which will break newer apps, sorry.

UnixImageIO – updated libpng and libtiff.

GEOS framework 3.0.0 – I keep forgetting this one.

SQLite3 framework 3.5.7.

Postgres 8.3.1. Also PostGIS SVN to get some important fixes for using PostGIS with Postgres 8.3.

GRASS 6.3RC6.

I corrected some local build stuff in the PGXS configuration. This only affects those trying to compile extensions from source. Nothing has changed in the Postgres binaries.

Postgres 8.3.0 is finally ready, along with rebuilt PostGIS and pgRouting extensions. Besides 8.3.0 itself, there are a few other changes in the distribution:

• Startup changed to a launch daemon. It is included in the installer (not separate), and the old startupitem will be deleted by the installer.
• Restored PL/Python language (I got it to build 64bits). But I’m permanently dropping PL/Perl because Apple’s Perl is simply not meant for 3rd-party use (while Apple has renewed interest in Python as much as to provide application templates in Xcode).
• Added locale support (translations for messages, separate from character encoding support which it always had).
• Data cluster is now initialized with UTF8 encoding.
• Expanded help files for some common questions and features, such as initializing a cluster for other locales and encodings.

Fixed non-functioning shp2pgsql and pgsql2shp tools in 32bit Leopard. Everything else is unchanged, you only need this on 32bit Leopard (that is, a Core Duo).

I tried to get the vdigit Python binary compiled, but no go. So here is RC5 without digitizing in the Python GUI.

Hopefully, I’ve fixed a couple problems that would cause the postgres user creation and data store initialization to fail. It’s difficult for me to test because it has always worked for me, but I did identify and correct a couple possible sources of the problem.

If you have already installed Postgres 8.2.6-1 and it is running, there is no need to 8.2.6-2.

Filling in a Leopard update hole – rgdal.

Postgres updated to 8.2.6. I will work on 8.3 now, and try to get a proper launchd startup working to replace the startup item
