Hello,

I am having issues trying to install the postgis30_13 package on a RHEL9
host. Attempting to install the package gives me this error:

I have epel enabled and the only version of armadillo available is
12.6.6-2.el9

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve the issue?

Are the missing packages in EPEL?

It doesn't look like it. I tried to find what provides libarmadillo.so.10
but could not find any packages:

$ sudo dnf provides */libarmadillo.so.10
Updating Subscription Management repositories.
Last metadata expiration check: 0:20:05 ago on Wed Apr 2 11:17:43 2025.
Error: No matches found. If searching for a file, try specifying the full
path or using a wildcard prefix ("*/") at the beginning.

The only version of armadillo available to me is 12.6.6-2.el9 which
provides libarmadillo.so.12

I assume I need an older version of armadillo, is there a particular repo
that I need to enable to get this particular dependency?

Thanks

I haven't been maintaining PostGIS 3.0 RPMs for a while. Let me look.

Fixed in 3.0.9-2. Please make sure that you update repository cache
first to receive the updates.
