Description

I'm trying to re-install CKAN and reload the plugins but also re-use the same database as before.

As a result, I'm now getting this error and I'm not sure what to do about it.

Research direction

Start with the setup path in ckanext.spatial.plugin and the existing-table handling in ckanext.spatial.model.package_extent. Reproduce a CKAN re-install using the existing database, then determine the expected behavior when the spatial tables are already present and document or test that outcome.
