Hi Christoph,

I got the impression it should work from https://postgis.net/ where it states: 
	2.5.3 This release supports PostgreSQL 9.3-12 
	You are encouraged to use the PostGIS 3.0 unreleased branch with PostgreSQL 12 , 
	which has features specifically designed to take advantage of features new in PostgreSQL 12.

But as i understand it's mostly a packaging problem. 
Thanks for the info, I will just wait for postgis 3 for those specific databases that use this extension !
