Hi, I am using the generate_image.py script from the mapnik-stylesheets repo as I would like to generate some image files for printing. I opened an issue there, too, but I realised this is probably the right place.
I should emphasize that I barely know what I am doing: I don't work with GIS and I am winging it.
The problem I encountered is that, upon calling render, some PostGIS function is called that does not exist:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/generate_image.py", line 70, in <module>
mapnik.render(m, im)
RuntimeError: Postgis Plugin: ERROR: function st_estimated_extent(unknown, unknown) does not exist

in executeQuery Full sql was: 'SELECT ST_XMin(ext),ST_YMin(ext),ST_XMax(ext),ST_YMax(ext) FROM (SELECT ST_Estimated_Extent('planet_osm_polygon','way') as ext) as tmp'
This query, which returns the user functions

left join pg_namespace n on p.pronamespace = n.oid
left join pg_language l on p.prolang = l.oid
left join pg_type t on t.oid = p.prorettype
where n.nspname not in ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema') and p.proname like '%estimate%extent%'
order by function_schema,
function_name;
returns
function_schema | function_name | function_language | function_arguments | return_type

public | st_estimatedextent | c | text, text, text | box2d
public | st_estimatedextent | c | text, text | box2d
(3 rows)
It seems that the function was renamed at some point in the past.
I was able to find a closed issue in the Mapnik repo but I am not sure how to take it from there.
Any help would be appreciated!
FYI, I am running on Windows 10, PostgreSQL 13 and PostGIS 3.1.0.
