postgis package features



Hello Bas,

I saw the split out of postgis-gui, very nice, thanks.

I have a somewhat similar change pending and would like to coordinate
with you, beforehand.

Short version: I'd like to rename the postgis-scripts binary package to
postgis-scripts-2.2.

Explanation: Without the version in the package name, two different
postgis versions cannot be installed in parallel. This upset some pgapt
users, because they didn't want to do major version upgrades (2.1 to 2.2
for example) on live systems.

We still do not plan to maintain multiple postgis versions within pgapt,
but the proposed renaming would mitigate the issue and allow not just
existing instances of the extension to continue to work, but even
'CREATE EXTENSION'.

Any concerns or are you okay with the proposed renaming?

Kind Regards

Markus
