I agree with @bobpaul ... It would be very useful if this package would also include the postgis compiled against the newer postgresql version, because it seem to be required for migration. I'm never again using Arch for a Postgresql db as every upgrade breaks everything.

So in order to upgrade from Postgresql 11 to 12, I had to install both this package AND manually build postgis 2.5 against postgres 12 (and install those *.so files into /usr/lib/postgresql). After running the upgrade, I had to run the command to upgrade my databases to postgis 3 and then I could delete the postgis-2.5 compiled against postgresql 12. (instructions are mostly in this ticket: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/64606)

It would be really convenient if this package provided both postgis-old for postgres-old (installed into /opt) as well as postgis-old for the current version of postgres (installed into /usr).

Does that make sense and seem reasonable?
