[postgis-devel] PSC Vote: Change PostGIS library name to drop the minor

[Darafei "Komяpa" Praliaskouski]

I've just finished my upgrade to Postgres 10.
Fixing PostGIS library name would have made the upgrade cleaner and save
some fiddling with symlinks.
Although, same problem is there for pgrouting, so you're getting used to it
:)
