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?

better1st step is source code package, isn't it?
 

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.
