type "GEOMETRY(POINT)" does not exist

Hi there! I try to use PostGIS with drizzle and having a hard time. I try to run the following migration file

ALTER TABLE "locations" ADD COLUMN "geoPoint" "GEOMETRY(POINT)";


But it errors with 
PostgresError: type "GEOMETRY(POINT)" does not exist
    at ErrorResponse (file:///Users/fabian/<redacted>/node_modules/.pnpm/postgres@3.4.3/node_modules/postgres/src/connection.js:790:26)

  position: '47',
  file: 'parse_type.c',
  line: '270',
  routine: 'typenameType'
}


Even though PostGIS is setuped successfully. When I run this SQL in supabase directly, it correctly adds the new column with the special data type.

I'm not the only one: https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/issues/1315

Maybe someone has an idea, would be grateful!
