Missing postgresql-9.6-postgis-2.3 in jessie-backports

[Jürgen Fuchsberger]

Hi,

I want to run postgresql 9.4 and 9.6 in parallel in jessie in order to
upgrade my database before switching to stretch. My problem is, that I
run postgis with my database so I also need the corresponding
postgresql-9.x-postgis packages. While postgresql-9.4,
postgresql-9.4-postgis-2.3, and postgresql-9.6 are available in
jessie/jessie-backports, postgresql-9.6-postgis-2.3 is *not*. Is there
any possibility to include postgresql-9.6-postgis-2.3 to
jessie-backports since this would greatly help many users who have to
upgrade their postgis enabled databases.

Another solution would be including postgresql-9.4-postgis-2.3 into
stretch, so that it is possible to run the old database after upgrading
to stretch. Currently the database becomes defunct after upgrade because
the postgis libraries are missing.

Kind regards,
Juergen Fuchsberger
