Description

What is the requested feature?
The integration of the PR #3282 has broken the non-regression tests of Pangea3 (see issue #3305) due to a missing installation of shared libraries (see fix #3307).

It is a blind spot in the current ci: it should be tested somewhere that we can successfully use the ci installation.

Describe the solution you'd like
One or few very fast tests have to execute the geos runtime produced in the install directory (and maybe after removing the build directory).

Research direction

Start with the CI installation step that produces the geos runtime and inspect how its install directory is used after installation. Add one or a few fast checks that execute the installed runtime, including after the build directory is removed, and confirm the shared libraries are available.
