Description
Currently the PostGIS instructions indicate the user should do this:
$ psql -d template_postgis -f $POSTGIS_SQL_PATH/postgis.sql
$ psql -d template_postgis -f $POSTGIS_SQL_PATH/spatial_ref_sys.sql
it errors with this:
/usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/postgis-1.5.2/postgis.sql: No such file or directory
The reason for the directory not being found, is because the postgis.sql & spatial_ref_sys.sql files are located in a 1.5 folder instead of a 1.5.2 folder:
/usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/postgis-1.5/
