Feb 19, 2016 at 3:22 comment added MartinT Hi John, apologies for the confusion. Yes, please include your steps in the answers in the answers question, I would give it a try. Did you have to build the contrib packages WITH the postgis, or is this something that can be added retrospectively in a separate build (that would be my main question).

Feb 16, 2016 at 7:23 comment added John Powell It is gevel not gavel -- this confused me until coffee number two :-) Good find, though, it is an interesting package.

Feb 16, 2016 at 7:21 comment added John Powell I have recently installed Postgres 9.5 beta and neither rtree_gist nor gevel are in the postgresql-9.5beta2/contrib directory. I think the readme is a bit confusing on this. Having said that, I pulled from git and installed from source in a few minutes (on Centos 6.7, for what it is worth) and all the tests passed. I will post my steps, if you are interested -- basically, their instructions, with a few more details. In my experience, building from source on Mac is reasonably similar to linux, although setting up build essentials and the like is a bit more painful.
