BUG #14907: missing postgis extension files

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      14907
Logged by:           Justin Lu
Email address:      justin.lu@digitalglobe.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.4.15
Operating system:   RHEL5
Description:

Hi,

I noticed that the postgis2_94-2.1.8-1.rhel5.x86_64.rpm file doesn't have
the postgis--2*.sql and postgis.control files in it. Those files are also
missing in postgis 2.1.7 version or postgres 9.5 version of same platform.
As the result, we can't create postgis extentions with that distribution. 

Is this intentional? Do we have to use RHEL6 version in order to use
postgis?

thanks,

Justin

You need to report this on the postgis mailing lists --- pgsql-bugs just
covers bugs in the core Postgres distribution.

(It's possible that some PostGIS hackers would see your report here,
but I wouldn't count on it.)
