ANY-2.5.0dev is showing as an upgrade option

[robe]

I just noticed something which I think is unintentional.

When I go to upgrade postgis via pgAdmin 4 gui (same with pgAdmin3), I now have an ANY-2.5.0dev option.

It's harmless but kinda confusing to a user.

If I try to upgrade to ANY, I get

ERROR: extension "postgis" has no update path from version "2.5.0dev" to version "ANY-2.5.0dev"

[strk]

In 15974:

Add missing dash in ANY-- upgrade path

Fixes #3898

[strk]

Unintentional, looks like I forgot a dash. You'll have to clean that up manually or "make uninstall" before updating codebase to r15974 in order to test the fix.

After I purged all my 2.5.0 install files, compiled, reinstalled

make check RUNTESTFLAGS=--extension

ERROR:  extension "postgis" has no update path from version "2.5.0dev" to version "2.5.0devnext"

Indeed the ANY option is gone, but I have no next option

[strk]

Regina it should be installed by make install which should call make install-upgrade-paths which would call this:

install-upgrade-paths: sql_bits/postgis_extension_upgrade_minor.sql
  tpl='$(EXTENSION)--ANY--$(EXTVERSION).sql'; \
  ln -fs "$${tpl}" $(EXTDIR)/$(EXTENSION)--$(EXTVERSION)--$(EXTVERSION)next.sql; \
  ln -fs "$${tpl}" $(EXTDIR)/$(EXTENSION)--$(EXTVERSION)next--$(EXTVERSION).sql; \
  $(INSTALL_DATA) $^ "$(EXTDIR)/$${tpl}"; \
  for OLD_VERSION in $(UPGRADEABLE_VERSIONS); do \
    ln -fs "$${tpl}" $(EXTDIR)/$(EXTENSION)--$$OLD_VERSION--$(EXTVERSION).sql; \
  done

See the "next" part is installing a symlink to ${tpl} which should be the ANY file.

Well it's working now not sure why it didn't work on first make install.

But wait. It's not working on winnie

and been failing for quite sometime. Longer than I keep logs for.

I'll ticket as separate issue might be the way I install on winnie, cause files get installed on the mingw but I copy over to the VC++ build. Though locally I'm testing vc++ build.

What I see on last winnie buildi is this:

Test: test_kmeans ...Makefile:86: recipe for target 'check' failed
make[2]: *** [check] Segmentation fault

REF: ​https://debbie.postgis.net:444/view/PostGIS/job/PostGIS_EDB_Regress_winnie/5943/console

Where are you seing the missing update path ?

[robe]

that's the random kmeans segfault that happens once in a while nothing new there. I updated the build / regress scripts before that. Anyway new info about this will go on #3901.
