pkglint -r --network --only "migrate"
As a side-effect of migrating the homepages, pkglint also fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines. These and the new homepages have been
checked manually.
(This revbump should not be necessary, because goes's public ABI did
not change. Due to a misfeature/bug in libtool, linking against the
stable geos C API results in a directed NEEDED entry on the unstable
C++ library.)
(Upstream also has news for beta and rc, and it's not clear if those
are additional or folded into the following.)

Currently, this package builds with all versions of postgreqsl in
pkgsrc, and it is likely to do so in the future, so there is no need
for an explicit list.
Add a variable MAJOR, currently 2.4, and instead of open-coding 2.4 in
PLIST, use ${MAJOR}, and teach print-PLIST how to invert that in only
the right places.
No functional change; this just reduces work on updating.

to norm_addy tiger_geocoder type.

* Breaking Changes *
- Dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.2.
- #3810, GEOS 3.4.0 or above minimum required to compile
- Most aggregates now marked as parallel safe,
which means most aggs have to be dropped / recreated.
If you have views that utilize PostGIS aggs,
you'll need to drop before upgrade and recreate after upgrade

- _ST_DumpPoints removed, was no longer needed after PostGIS 2.1.0
when ST_DumpPoints got reimplemented in C
- B-Tree index operators < = > changed to provide better spatial locality on sorting
and have expected behavior on GROUP BY.
If you have btree index for geometry or geography, you need to REINDEX it, or review
if it was created by accident and needs to be replaced with GiST index.
If your code relies on old left-to-right box compare ordering,
update it to use << >> operators

* Fixes and Enhancements since PostGIS 2.4.0rc2 *
- #3781 st_contains cannot handle curvepolygon / compoundcurve
consisting of only straight lines
- #3866 server crashing from large values in ST_AsTWKB
- #3818 Allow triangles unclosed in M to be WKT parsed
- several packaging changes regarding checking trailing blanks

- ST_ConcaveHull bug fix
See PostGIS 2.4.0 section for details of
new features and enhancements in this release.
PostGIS 2.4.0rc1
2017/09/13
Note possible breaking changes since 2.4.0 beta1 release are:
* Breaking Changes *
- B-Tree index operators < = > changed to provide better spatial locality on sorting
and have expected behavior on GROUP BY.
If you have btree index for geometry or geography, you need to REINDEX it, or review
if it was created by accident and needs to be replaced with GiST index.
If your code relies on old left-to-right box compare ordering,
update it to use << >> operators.
- ST_AsMVT aggregate now overloaded and arg order changed.
Check your code if you are already using this function.
- _ST_DumpPoints removed, was no longer needed after PostGIS 2.1.0
when ST_DumpPoints got reimplemented in C
Upstream has very complicated ifdefs that try to define UNIX
everywhere but windows, except that it fails to include NetBSD. Then,
it uses UNIX to avoid using the non-standard stricmp and instead use
the POSIX-conforming strcasecmp.
For pkgsrc, rip out an entire screenful of complexity and just define
UNIX if not defined. Resolves build on NetBSD 7, and probably other places.
