+# WARNING — this is a per-CONTAINER install, not a per-VOLUME one. `apk add`

+# change, `docker compose up --force-recreate`) REMOVES PostGIS while the data
+# keeps its geometry columns — every spatial query then fails until this
+# playbook runs again. The install task is therefore idempotent and runs after
