A.23 Release 1.0.3

Release date: 2005/08/08
Contains some bug fixes - including a severe one affecting correctness of stored geometries - and a few improvements.

A.23.1 Upgrading
Due to a bug in a bounding box computation routine, the upgrade procedure requires special attention, as bounding boxes cached
in the database could be incorrect.
An hard upgrade procedure (dump/reload) will force recomputation of all bounding boxes (not included in dumps). This is
required if upgrading from releases prior to 1.0.0RC6.
If you are upgrading from versions 1.0.0RC6 or up, this release includes a perl script (utils/rebuild_bbox_caches.pl) to force
recomputation of geometries bounding boxes and invoke all operations required to propagate eventual changes in them (geometry statistics update, reindexing). Invoke the script after a make install (run with no args for syntax help). Optionally run
utils/postgis_proc_upgrade.pl to refresh postgis procedures and functions signatures (see Soft upgrade).

A.23.2 Bug fixes

Severe bugfix in lwgeoms 2d bounding box computation
Bugfix in WKT (-w) POINT handling in loader
Bugfix in dumper on 64bit machines
Bugfix in dumper handling of user-defined queries
Bugfix in create_undef.pl script

A.23.3 Improvements
Small performance improvement in canonical input function
Minor cleanups in loader
Support for multibyte field names in loader
Improvement in the postgis_restore.pl script
New rebuild_bbox_caches.pl util script

A.24 Release 1.0.2

Release date: 2005/07/04
Contains a few bug fixes and improvements.
