Is there any value in creating a separate "no GIS" variant? We usually
just enable all features.

Looping over the PG versions will be handled by pg_buildext in the
packaging toolchain. Looping over architectures is handled by invoking
that build separate on each architecture.

Check any other extension then?

You create a source package (well, you create debian/ and then the
source package is built from that). From that, the binary packages are
built.

debian/ is all that is required.
