Package: postgresql-13-postgis-3
Version: 3.1.1+dfsg-1+deb11u1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
after applying the minor update from 3.1.1+dfsg-1 to 3.1.1+dfsg-1+deb11u1 the transformation
of coordinates for EPSG:31466 no longer works correctly, the values for x and
y are inverted which broke applications on a production server relying on the correct order.
This behaviour was probably a unwanted side effect of
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1031392
The steps to reproduce this issue are:
- create a test "bullseye" system (e.g. in vagrant)
- ensure the system is up to date:
`sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`
- install Postgres with the PostGIS extensions:
`sudo apt install -y postgresql-13-postgis-3`
- create a test database:
`sudo -u postgres createdb -E UTF8 -T template0 test_db`
- create the PostGIS extension on the test database:
`sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS postgis;" test_db`
- start `psql` and transform a test point from epsg:3857 to epsg:31466
```
sudo -u postgres psql -d test_db
psql (13.10 (Debian 13.10-0+deb11u1))
Type "help" for help.
test_db=# select ST_AsEWKT(ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromEWKT('SRID=3857;POINT(730249 6518693)'), 31466));
st_asewkt
--------------------------------------------------------
SRID=31466;POINT(5586868.886276492 2539841.4544491787)
(1 row)
```
The expected output as from
- PostgresQL 11 with PostGIS 2.5.1+dfsg-1 from Debian Sources
- PostgresQL 11 with PostGIS 2.5.5+dfsg-1.pgdg100+2 from PostgreSQL Sources
- PostgresQL 13 with PostGIS 3.1.1+dfsg-1 from Debian Sources
- PostgresQL 13 with PostGIS 3.3.2+dfsg-1.pgdg110+1 from PostgreSQL Sources
is:
```
sudo -u postgres psql -d test_db
psql (13.10 (Debian 13.10-1.pgdg110+1))
Type "help" for help.
[test_db] # select ST_AsEWKT(ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromEWKT('SRID=3857;POINT(730249 6518693)'), 31466));
st_asewkt
--------------------------------------------------------
SRID=31466;POINT(2539841.4544491787 5586868.886276492)
(1 row)
```
As one can see, the point values are inverted.
