Stefan,

 

Which distro do you get your PostgreSQL 12 from.  I’m assuming apt.postgresql.org

 

If so you should report on their mailing list, as that would be a packaging bug,not a PostGIS one and no one on the PostGIS project is on the apt team.

Thanks,

Regina

Today I’ve installed the brand new PostgreSQL 12  on Ubuntu 18.04

 

“apt-get install postgis”  will install PostGIS 2.5.2, but the  PATH is wrong:  /usr/share/postgresql/11/…

 

So CREATE EXTENSION postgis will fail.

Hi Stefan,

it's never been the expectation that "postgis" will install the
correct PostGIS version for the correct PostgreSQL version. If there's
only one version to choose from in a single Debian distribution, it
will work, but as soon as there's several versions to choose from like
in apt.postgresql.org, you should explicitly select a version:

apt install postgis postgresql-11-postgis-2.5

That said, we don't have postgis 2.5 packages for PG 12 yet.
