    Interesting and useful work, keep it up.

    However, I took a look at a few geospatial-nix packages:

    - https://github.com/imincik/geospatial-nix/blob/master/pkgs/p...

    - https://github.com/imincik/geospatial-nix/blob/master/pkgs/g...

    But it seems like the packages are minimally tested.

    Am I seeing this correctly?

    For example, with postgis, I miss the 'make check';

    "The above command will run through various checks and regression tests using the generated library against an actual PostgreSQL database."
