Description
In Ubuntu 14.04, the packaged version of PostGIS is 2.1. In trying to build a Jenkins box, I've encountered one failing test:
Traceback (most recent call last):

And FWIW, it might be more related to the GDAL version than to PostGIS. What is the GDAL version?

| Summary: | Add PostGIS 2.1 support → Add PostGIS 2.1 / GDAL 1.10 support |
|---|
GDAL 1.10.1 (which I see isn't listed as supported).

I tried updating the test to use the alternate SRS as suggested, but still get the same exception so possibly I have a bad configuration or missing installation of something, but the test passes on Ubuntu 12.04 with pretty much the same configuration. The main difference I can think of is that 14.04 is using CREATE EXTENSION postgis; with PostGIS 2.1 while 12.04 is using the createdb -T template_postgis <db_name> technique on PostGIS 1.5.
I guess I will go back to building the new Jenkins on 12.04 as there are some failing tests on 1.4 that would require backporting a couple things like [747f7d25] which we shouldn't do if we are only doing security updates for 1.4.

Tim, I'm so sorry, it is 3857, not 3856 /o\. I'll care for this issue.

Gosh, Fix also the DOC please!
I've spent significant time figuring out "What the hell is wrong"
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/gis/install/

TO:
add_srs_entry(3857)

If you believe there is a doc error, please open a new ticket. It's unclear why that would be related to this ticket as that section is described as "If you’re running GDAL 1.7 or above (most users), you can skip this step."
900913 srs is deprecated for some time now (replaced by 3856), I think we could safely remove it from our code.
However, we should still check if it doesn't break anything regrading OpenLayers (see also http://docs.openlayers.org/library/spherical_mercator.html).
