I forgot to mention that I'm testing+building postgis on
xenial+bionic+disco. (disco is already not in the that list.)

I don't see any issues besides the general i386 one tracked in
https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/4407

I'll do some clean up of the rule files; currently I'm working on
making the pg-postgis-3 package actually depend on
pg-postgis-3-scripts as getting that installed without the dependency
is really painful, and bad UX. I hope that using "alternatives" for
the *.control files does the trick. Will push a branch for review.
