Create a postgis buster image version

[serut]

We're using an "old" docker version and we used to use postgis. But since few days, your image postgis/postgis:11-3.1 now requires Docker 20.10.6. Source: https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/issues/884#issuecomment-929958080 It would be very cool to create a buster version of the image, which does not require the last version of Docker.

It would be very cool to create a buster version of the image,

IMHO: it is a security issue .. without the upstream maintenance it is extreme hard.

on the other hand, you can reach the old postgis images by digest :

example: 12-3.1: ( https://github.com/postgis/docker-postgis/runs/3648381861?check_suite_focus=true#step:5:94 17 days ago ) digest: 12-3.1: digest: sha256:d04f7c1d9b739ac480464da9a626d937f459ba82aea2a52d732859c2510331de size: 3664

$ docker run -it --rm postgis/postgis@sha256:d04f7c1d9b739ac480464da9a626d937f459ba82aea2a52d732859c2510331de bash -c "cat /etc/os-release"

+1 for buster as we still have some internal built extensions depends on it, yet we want the new postgis :)

@DeoLeung

buster

The problem: No buster in the upstream https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/blob/master/versions.json

• only bullseye,stretch

So you have to build locally.

yes we copy the Dockerfile and build buster locally now. the upstream postgres do have buster, but with version capped to 12.5(postgres:12-buster) and 13.4(postgres:13-buster)
