Description:

Hi,

The installation of postgis30_13 fails on Rocky 9 due to a change in the
version of libarmadillo from version 10 to 12 in the EPEL repository in the
Rocky 9.2 to 9.3 release. Would it be possible to recompile gdal to be
compatible with new version?

# dnf install postgis30_13

Error: 
 Problem: package postgis30_13-3.0.7-1.rhel9.x86_64 from pgdg13 requires
gdal33-libs >= 3.3.3, but none of the providers can be installed
  - package postgis30_13-3.0.7-1.rhel9.x86_64 from pgdg13 requires
libgdal.so.29()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides libarmadillo.so.10()(64bit) needed by
gdal33-libs-3.3.3-7PGDG.rhel9.x86_64 from pgdg-common
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to
use not only best candidate packages)

Version change:

http://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/archive.fedoraproject.org/epel/9.2/Everything/x86_64/Packages/a/armadillo-10.8.2-4.el9.x86_64.rpm

http://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/archive.fedoraproject.org/epel/9.3/Everything/x86_64/Packages/a/armadillo-12.6.6-2.el9.x86_64.rpm

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, crb is enabled. On Rocky 9, powertools were renamed as crb.

However, armadillo is only provided by the EPEL. I have searched some announcement mailing lists of the EPEL, and they
recompiledGDAL libraries when they updated Armadillo to version 12. So, the same needs to be done here.
