Unless what's on Debian-GIS has changed recently, it's still got alot of
issues.  I suppose I can go through and point them all out (such as
including some of the scripts already in postgresql-common and having an
obscene number of binary packages for a simple Postgres module) but,
honestly, the packaging is just way more complex than it has any need to
be.  It tries to do way too much and ends up not being very good at
doing the basics and ends up being very fragile.
