I thought the "postgis scripts" package was for updating the server's postgis version? 


"This package contains SQL scripts to upgrade from earlier PostGIS versions for PostgreSQL 9.6 as well as Perl utility scripts."

The control and sql files needed are in this package though ... something seems off / weird?


Thank you for your time,

Hi,

the postgis.control file is contained in postgresql-9.6-postgis-2.3-scripts.

The package description isn't really clear about this - Markus, is
this intended?
