Weird, I have all the same software that was installed before I 
restored, as I'm using NixOS. I'm guessing the earth type is provided by 
earthdistance, and in the SQL script it's able to successfully install 
cube, vector, and earthdistance. I think earthdistance and cube are 
actually built-in modules, right?

I ran the following commands, and earth is even one of the listed types:

postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION earthdistance;
CREATE EXTENSION
postgres=# SELECT t.typname
FROM pg_catalog.pg_type t
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = t.typnamespace
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_extension e ON e.extnamespace = n.oid
WHERE e.extname = 'earthdistance';
  typname
---------
  _cube
  _earth
  cube
  earth
(4 rows)

The earthdistance module is even getting added between the table with 
the earth type is added, so shouldn't there be no problem?
