I'm having the same problem as Dmitry, but I've been unable to find a
solution. I've looked everywhere googleable for info on setting up GiST
indexes, but haven't found any info that doesn't look like post-doc
papers on the theory of indexability.

I'd be happy with an RTFM response, if I could just find TFM. :-)

Any info would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris
