Ahh, that now makes sense (see below) .

My very original plan was to support a single GeOS/GDAL/PROJ
combination across all PostGIS installations, which miserably failed
after PROJ 8.0:

checking for proj_api.h... no
configure: error: could not find proj_api.h - you may need to specify
the directory of a PROJ.4 installation using --with-projdir

Upstream patched 3.0 and 3.1 for that, and that is why users of the
recent versions actually have no issues.

I even removed gdal30 spec files from pgdg repos a few months ago :-)

Let me see what I can do. Either I will solve the problem on the
packaging side, or will just as users to add these packages to
exclude=... list, so that yum/dnf update won't complain.
