Comment (by jea@…):

 Replying to [ticket:40259 jea@…]:
 > Somehow I managed to get both installed, I can't remember how, maybe I
 installed Postgis1.58 after Postgis2.  But now I can't do any maintenance
 on the PostGIS2 port because it always complains about the installed (and
 running -- in production) Postgis1.5.8  port.

 > This also relates to mapserver, and presumably other ports that want to
 use the postgis2 libraries.  I want the mapserver port to use the Postgis2
 libraries even though there is a running production postgis1.5 elsewhere
 on the machine (in a different postgresql installation), but macports
 keeps complaining that it can't do anything with postgis2 because postgis
 (1.5.8) is installed.

 I've discovered that to upgrade my postgis2 installation, I can deactivate
 the postgis 1.5.8, then upgrade postgis2, then activate postgis1.5.8
 again.  Perhaps this works because my postgis1.5.8 is installed in the
 postgresql9.1 while my postgis2 is installed in postgresql9.2.
